This【C9】______her to explore the lives of unsuspecting Venmo users and learn "an alarming amount about them."
The【C10】______state for transactions when a user signs up to the app is "public," which means they can be seen by anyone on the【C11】______. Users can change this to "private" by【C12】______to the app’s settings,【C13】______it’s not clearly highlighted during sign-up.
Do Thi Due showcases the level of personal date【C14】______through Venmo through her project website "Public by Default," named because when anyone makes a【C15】______through the app, it is public【C16】______that person has locked down their privacy settings. Here she has accessed in on five individual users, including a man who sells cannabis in Santa Barbara and a pair of【C17】______who pass money between each other accompanied by flirting, arguing, apologies and threats.
In the case of the cannabis seller, Do Thi Due could see 920 incoming payments throughout 2017,【C18】______by messages including words like "CBD" (an abbreviation of cannabidiol, one of the active ingredients in cannabis) "delivery," "order" or "emojis".
