Abstract

A central feature of CSCW applications is the electronic capture and dissemination of detailed personal information. Whether using e-mail, computer conferencing facilities, group decision support systems, media spaces, active badges, or other computerized means for aiding collective work activities, fine-grained information about individual's performance and behaviour is made available to others. This poses important questions about how the people involved may control information about themselves---information which can play an important role in fundamental notions of personal and collective dignity, identity and autonomy.
