The article "Wearable Activity Trackers: A Survey on Utility, Privacy, and Security" by Kavous Salehzadeh Niksirat et al. provides a comprehensive review of the literature on wearable activity trackers (WATs), focusing on their utility, privacy, and security aspects. The authors conducted a systematic literature review of 236 studies to identify the benefits, privacy implications, and security vulnerabilities of WATs. They found that while WATs offer various benefits such as increased physical activity, improved health, and social benefits, they also expose users to privacy risks, including the inference of private information like personality traits. The survey highlights the lack of research on technologies to enhance user privacy and discusses the trade-offs between utility and privacy. The authors also review existing privacy policies, regulations, and ethical considerations, and propose several research gaps and future directions for improving the security and privacy of WATs. The survey contributes to the understanding of the state-of-the-art approaches and identifies areas for further research in this field.The article "Wearable Activity Trackers: A Survey on Utility, Privacy, and Security" by Kavous Salehzadeh Niksirat et al. provides a comprehensive review of the literature on wearable activity trackers (WATs), focusing on their utility, privacy, and security aspects.
