Bivariate correlations of surveillance knowledge index and other factors7.3. Critique of SurveillanceThe next five tables report the results of scaled questions that aimed at assessing howcritical and sensitive students are towards surveillance issues. Overall, the students inour study have a rather high degree of critical sensitivity towards surveillance. 71.8%disagree (to a certain extent) to the statement that one need not be afraid of surveillanceif one has nothing to hide. 53% disagree (to a certain extent) to the statement that socialnetworking platforms can be trusted in how they deal with private data. 73.2% disagree(to a certain extent) that Austrians are well protected from state surveillance. 87.0%agree or agree strongly that corporations have a strong interest in gathering personaldata. 58.9% agree (to a certain extent) that state surveillance has increased after 9/11.If we combine the answers to these five questions to an overall index (surveillancecritique index, for the definition of this index see table 4), then the statistical average ofthis index is 17.3 (scale: 0-25, 0=no critique towards surveillance, 25=high level of60
