| Summary: | Data privacy is a fundamental ethical goal. We must aim for innovating without exploiting. In order to provide formal privacy guarantees, differential privacy has been the central method of implementing database privacy. However, there are many barriers to widespread adoption. General methods lack accuracy and more innovative methods lack applicability beyond a specific kind of data or query. This project aims to create an effective differentially private system that provides an identical user experience to using raw data and redefines utility in database privacy to focus on the user experience. |
