Title: PeopleTraffic: a common framework for harmonizing privacy and epidemic risks
Authors: Ruggero Caravita
Abstract summary: PeopleTraffic is a proposed initiative to develop a real-time, open-data population density mapping tool open to public institutions, private companies and the civil society. The system is based on a real-time people' locations gathering and mapping system from available 2G, 3G and 4G mobile networks operators.

Abstract: PeopleTraffic is a proposed initiative to develop a real-time, open-data population density mapping tool open to public institutions, private companies and the civil society, providing a common framework for infection spreading prevention. The system is based on a real-time people' locations gathering and mapping system from available 2G, 3G and 4G mobile networks operators, enforcing privacy-by-design through the adoption of an innovative data anonymizing algorithm inspired by quantum information de-localizing processes. Besides being originally targeted to help balancing social distancing regulations during the Phase-2 of the COVID-19 pandemics, PeopleTraffic would be beneficial for any infection spreading prevention event, e.g. supporting policy-makers in strategic decision-making.

Secure Aggregation is Not Private Against Membership Inference Attacks [66.59892736942953]
We investigate the privacy implications of SecAgg in federated learning. We show that SecAgg offers weak privacy against membership inference attacks even in a single training round. Our findings underscore the imperative for additional privacy-enhancing mechanisms, such as noise injection.

Blockchain-empowered Federated Learning for Healthcare Metaverses: User-centric Incentive Mechanism with Optimal Data Freshness [66.3982155172418]
We first design a user-centric privacy-preserving framework based on decentralized Federated Learning (FL) for healthcare metaverses. We then utilize Age of Information (AoI) as an effective data-freshness metric and propose an AoI-based contract theory model under Prospect Theory (PT) to motivate sensing data sharing.

Second layer data governance for permissioned blockchains: the privacy management challenge [58.720142291102135]
In pandemic situations, such as the COVID-19 and Ebola outbreak, the action related to sharing health data is crucial to avoid the massive infection and decrease the number of deaths. In this sense, permissioned blockchain technology emerges to empower users to get their rights providing data ownership, transparency, and security through an immutable, unified, and distributed database ruled by smart contracts.

A Vision-based Social Distancing and Critical Density Detection System for COVID-19 [0.0]
Social distancing has been proven as an effective measure against the spread of the infectious COronaVIrus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). An active surveillance system capable of detecting distances between individuals and warning them can slow down the spread of the deadly disease. Here we propose an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based real-time social distancing detection and warning system considering four important ethical factors.

Digital Ariadne: Citizen Empowerment for Epidemic Control [55.41644538483948]
The COVID-19 crisis represents the most dangerous threat to public health since the H1N1 pandemic of 1918. Technology-assisted location and contact tracing, if broadly adopted, may help limit the spread of infectious diseases. We present a tool, called 'diAry' or 'digital Ariadne', based on voluntary location and Bluetooth tracking on personal devices.

Give more data, awareness and control to individual citizens, and they will help COVID-19 containment [74.10257867142049]
Contact-tracing apps are being proposed for large scale adoption by many countries. A centralized approach raises concerns about citizens' privacy and needlessly strong digital surveillance. We advocate a decentralized approach, where both contact and location data are collected exclusively in individual citizens' "personal data stores"

Assessing Disease Exposure Risk with Location Data: A Proposal for Cryptographic Preservation of Privacy [10.527218766532192]
Governments and researchers are implementing digital contact tracing solutions to stem the spread of infectious disease, namely COVID-19. Many of these solutions threaten individual rights and privacy. We offer an alternative approach to assess and communicate users' risk of exposure to an infectious disease while preserving individual privacy.
