I've got 99 problems, but vibration ain't one: a survey of smartphone users' concerns
Abstract
Smartphone operating systems warn users when third-party applications try to access sensitive functions or data. However, all of the major smartphone platforms warn users about different application actions. To our knowledge, their selection of warnings was not grounded in user research; past research on mobile privacy has focused exclusively on the risks pertained to sharing location. To expand the scope of smartphone security and privacy research, we surveyed 3,115 smartphone users about 99 risks associated with 54 smartphone privileges. We asked participants to rate how upset they would be if given risks occurred and used this data to rank risks by levels of user concern. We then asked 41 smartphone users to discuss the risks in their own words; their responses confirmed that people find the lowest-ranked risks merely annoying but might seek legal or financial retribution for the highest-ranked risks. In order to determine the relative frequency of risks, we also surveyed the 3,115 users about experiences with "misbehaving" applications. Our ranking and frequency data can be used to guide the selection of warnings on smartphone platforms.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
