  We report from a study performed in ten European countries, where we asked
about attitudes and behaviour towards data sharing behaviour. We looked into
the differences between members of age groups. We find that there are more
similarities than differences between the age groups, with the exception of
young people more often tending to use fake information for privacy reasons.
When analysing whether users change privacy settings as an indicator of
awareness, we find that both the younger and the older users have lower
awareness than the members of the middle-aged. The use of learning and
practising tools seems the right way to increase the privacy and data sharing
awareness of citizen.
