title = "Re-examining perceptions on healthcare privacy: Moving from a punitive model to an awareness model",
abstract = "In this position paper, I argue that, in the near future, the advent of social media, patient empowerment, and post-privacy will lead individuals to openly share their personal health information online with other individuals and groups. These actions will undermine the need for current privacy legislation, which cannot prevent individuals from divulging their own personal health information. As a result, current privacy legislation must change from a punitive and restrictive model to a model that empowers and promotes awareness about how individuals use their personal health information online.",
