Persuasive Privacy

We propose a novel framework for measuring privacy from a Bayesian game-theoretic perspective. This framework enables the creation of new, purpose-driven privacy definitions that are rigorously justified, while also allowing for the assessment of existing privacy guarantees through game theory. We show that pure and probabilistic differential privacy are special cases of our framework, and provide new interpretations of the post-processing inequality in these settings. Further, we demonstrate that privacy guarantees can be established for deterministic algorithms, which are overlooked by current privacy standards.
