Title: Privacy Threats in Intimate Relationships

Introduction
The article that I chose is titled “Privacy Threats in Intimate Relationships”. This article
deep dives into different types of personal or “intimate relationships and how people that
you have relationships with can also invade your privacy as well.
How the topic relates to the principles of the social sciences
This article relates to the social sciences through sociology because the article talks
about how personal interaction relates to privacy invasion. Another principle is
psychology, because people that are in intimate relationships may justify having access
to private information because of the preexisting personal relationship

Research Methods Used & Data and Analysis
Throughout the article multiple case studies are used to further support the topic. It also
includes many examples of privacy violations in intimate relationships. Throughout the
article the multiple types of relationships are documented and has examples provided,
such as friends, caregivers, parents and minor children to name a few.

Topic In relation to the class
I was able to see how the article relates to the course material by referencing the
module 4 PowerPoint. It was mentioned how technology and psychology are
interconnected. It also mentioned how psychological factors increase the risk of
victimization. Also sometimes victims may not even realize that they play a part in their
own victimization, such as children that are being victimized by their parents or elderly
parent and their child.

How the topic relates to marginalized groups
Marginalized groups are those that are at a disadvantage due to multiple factors such
as age, financial status, race, and sexual orientation.

Contributions to society
The information provided brought awareness to the existence of privacy invasion in
relationships. Sometimes what we may see as “normal” could be manipulation and a
violation against someone. The article also mentions different ways to prevent this from
happening and how to educate the public as well as provide assistance and laws that
could help someone that is experiencing this.

Conclusion
This article provided a great explanation of how people can experience privacy invasion
in personal relationships. It also explored the different types of relationships, provided
examples of each and also ways that people in these situations can protect their
personal info and have more privacy.
