Professor Nissenbaum, who developed the contextual integrity framework, is associated with which institution?

• A. Cornell Tech
• B. MIT
• C. Stanford
• D. Harvard

Answer: (A)

Contextual integrity is a privacy theory that says whether information stays private depends on the social context and the norms about who should know and how information is shared in that context. Helen Nissenbaum developed this framework, emphasizing that privacy expectations shift with different situations and relationships.

She is associated with Cornell Tech, the Cornell University campus in New York City, where she has been a faculty member. Because she is the scholar who formulated the idea and she is closely tied to Cornell Tech through her work, this institution is the most fitting association for the framework.
