A few weeks ago I posted some new statistics from Pew to my blog: http://chimprawk.blogspot.com/2008/01/how-many-americans-use-social.html Using these for raw estimate numbers, and the Pew survey's I've linked to, you might be able to pull out some good privacy and identity statistics. You might also find some interesting hits on these delicious streams: http://del.icio.us/fstutzman/stats http://del.icio.us/fstutzman/statistics (These are mixture of stats I've run across, but there's also a little bit of my homework in there :). -Fred On Thu, 14 Feb 2008, Sam Ladner wrote:
Hello everyone,
I am looking for recent trends in privacy/identity issues online. The best I have been able to find is Pew's Internet and American Life recent stats (61% feel no compulsion to hide their digital footprint). Does anyone know of any other recent statistics regarding privacy, security, or identity?
