DESCRIPTION:Over the past several decades\, there has been a cat-and-mouse
  game played between data&nbsp\;protectors of and data users. &nbsp\;It se
 ems as though every time a new model of data privacy is posited\, a new at
 tack is published along with high-profile demonstrations of its failure to
  guarantee protection. &nbsp\;This has\, upon many occasions\, led to outc
 ries about how privacy is either dead\, is dying\, or was a mere myth and 
 never existed in the first place. &nbsp\;The goal of this talk is to revie
 w how we got to this juncture in time and suggest that data privacy may no
 t only be dead\, but that our technical definitions of the problem may req
 uire an augmentation to account for real world adversarial settings. &nbsp
 \;In doing so\, I will introduce a new direction in privacy\, which is roo
 ted in a formal game theoretic framework and will provide examples of how 
 this view can provide for greater flexibility with respect to several clas
 sic privacy problems\, including the publication of individual-level recor
 ds and summary statistics.
