We provide a largescale text mining of privacy news, focusing on patterns in sentiment and keywords. This is a challenging task given the lack of a privacy news repository and a ground truth for sentiment. Using high-precision data sets from two popular news sources in the U. S. and U. K., the New York Times and the Guardian, we find negative privacy news is far more common than positive. In addition, in the NYT, privacy news is more prominently reported than many world events involving significant human suffering. Our analysis provides a rich snapshot of this driver of privacy perceptions and demonstrates that news facilitates the systematization of privacy knowledge.}, journal={2017 15TH ANNUAL CONFERENCE ON PRIVACY, SECURITY AND TRUST (PST)}, publisher={IEEE}, author={Sheshadri, Karthik and Ajmeri, Nirav and Staddon, Jessica}, year={2017}, pages={159–168} }
