Summary: This article investigates the role of online privacy literacy as a determinant of Internet users' concerns about their privacy. Contrary to the premise, the findings suggest that Internet users with higher privacy literacy actually have increased concerns about their privacy. Additionally, the study reveals that an increase in knowledge about regulations and laws pertaining to personal data protection does not result in fewer concerns about privacy.

Summary: Billions of users worldwide daily install Android apps, which access a vast amount of sensitive personal data. Various techniques have been developed to understand how apps protect or harm user privacy, but these results come from different research domains and perspectives, resulting in a scattered body of knowledge. To address this gap, a systematic mapping study was conducted to provide an overview of state-of-the-art techniques for assessing privacy in Android apps between 2016 and 2020, highlighting relevant findings, identifying pressing gaps, and discussing promising research directions.

Summary: The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) aims to ensure fair and transparent personal data processing activities for EU citizens, regardless of location. However, supervisory authorities face challenges in checking GDPR compliance for mobile apps due to their high number and dynamic nature. This paper proposes an automated method for assessing Android app compliance with GDPR requirements for cross-border data transfers. The study found that nearly half of the apps sending personal data may not comply with GDPR, indicating a significant gap between app providers' practices and GDPR intentions.
