Catalan internet users are concerned

By Denis Timotei Savu

The results of a study conducted by the Foundation Centre for the Information Society in Catalonia and the University Rovira i Virgili show that 72% of Catalan Internet users are concerned about the use that public and private firms make of the personal information they find on the Internet. The results also show that people between 16 and 34 years old know more about the security of the network, men more so than women. Furthermore, 55% of the population are members of social networks and most of them post photographs of their friends without their permission. The conclusion of the study is that security on the net can improve.
