Abstract

By persistently gathering information over social networks, a person can extract detailed accounts of the lives of others and monitor their daily routines. Such surveillance behaviors have posed serious privacy concerns. This paper addresses the question, “who is surveilling you through social networking?”. Viewing a network as interconnected agents who interact through posting and retrieving information, we provide a measure to quantify the level of attention a person pays towards another. This measure allows us to capture online interpersonal surveillance.
