Visualizing Web Browser History for Informed Consent

Data Viz Challenge:

Dr. Ericka Menchen-Trevino will showcase Web Historian, a visualization app she’s built to explore internet privacy, online anonymity, and the evolving social contract behind giving up data to online service providers. Dr.Trevino describes the goal of her research as:

Dr.Trevino: "To truly inform [users] in the quickest and most accurate way possible about what their browsing history contains and allow them to opt-out on a per-item basis, allowing them to understand their own time management, the breadth and extent of news consumption, and enhance web search strategies.
