An individual's digital footprint is further informed by their communication preferences, purchase behavior, financial transactions, geospatial location tracking, medical records, and even personal characteristics such as heredity. These vast amounts of data, also referred to as "big data", include structured and unstructured data that can be combined to profile individuals, groups and various collectives in society. These data can be used by the governments, business organizations, research agencies, marketing companies, and agencies from various fields to peer into the human behavior and characteristics at a granular level that had never been possible before. The recent scandal involving Yahoo secretly scanning customer emails for US intelligence is one such example. Target retail store sending prenatal product promotion material to a teenager whose family was unaware of the pregnancy is another. Whether it is Volkswagen, Whole Foods, Ashley Madison social media or General Motors, the ethics and societal impacts of big data and analytics has grabbed center stage as a major concern for the public and organizations adopting a data driven decision making culture (Fang 2015). It is now recognized that the implications of big data reach beyond organizational benefits into the societal and ethical realm. According to Gartner it will grow in significance as a key issue in the field as it predicts that the improper use of big data analytics will cause half of all business ethics violations by 2018 (Marr 2016). Big data can be used to predict spread of diseases, potential genetic anomalies, and provide other useful insights; however, these benefits come at a price. Society is increasingly questioning the ethical risks associated with unfettered Big Data technologies. For example, use of these data raises privacy risks such as mass surveillance, profiling, selection bias, secondary use of Information, and collection of irrelevant information without users' volition. This mini-track focuses on research that addresses social and ethical issues associated with Big Data technologies and their uses.

Fwd: [AISWorld] SIGSI Minitrack - Online Networks and Community Building

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] SIGSI Minitrack - Online Networks and Community Building Datum: Mon, 6 Feb 2017 17:19:55 +0000 Von: Mann, Arti <Mann(a)UHCL.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear Colleagues, Consider submitting to the SIGSI Minitrack - Online Networks and Community Building (AMCIS 2017, Boston; August 20-12, 2017) Online networks of choice, which are groups that require voluntary identification and participation, have become important locations of identity, communication, information exchange and community building. Particularly useful among communities that are geographically remote, online networks manage to foster a shared identity through cultural exchange, sharing of resources and shared values. Typical patterns of social interaction, ethical and moral priorities in such exchange of ideas, the influence of diversity (or lack of diversity) among group members all may influence the way in which these networks succeed in creating community and building a feeling of shared identity. Online network communities have become a major part of social identity for individuals engaged in these communities. As these communities thrive and grow, patterns of social interaction, shared values and beliefs, and role of shared identity have become prominent. More research is needed to inform us about the un derlying patterns, challenges and opportunities that exist within these diverse communities. The aim of this mini-track is to promote theoretical and empirical research addressing the role of online networks in community building, regardless of the purpose of the network. We seek innovative contributions from scholars who engage in analysis of participation in online groups such as self-help groups, hobby groups, groups of demographic unity etc. DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION: March 1, 2017 Submission Information at https://amcis2017.aisnet.org/ Mini-track Co-Chairs: Arti Mann, University of Houston Clear Lake, mann(a)uhcl.edu<mailto:mann@uhcl.edu> Rucha Ambikar, Bemidji State University, rambikar(a)bemidjistate.edu<mailto:rambikar@bemidjistate.edu> _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
