In this exploratory study, the main aim was to find whypeople disclose information when they are concerned about their privacy. The reasons that provide a plausible explanation to the privacy paradox have been conjectural. From the analysis of the 18 in-depth interviews using grounded theory, themes were then conceptualized. The authors found rational and irrational explanations in terms of cognitive biases and heuristics that explain the privacy paradox among mobile users. They figured out some reasons in this context of mobile computing which were not emphasized earlier in the privacy paradox literature such as peanut effect, fear of missing out (FoMo), learned helplessness, and neophiliac personality. These results add to the privacy paradox discourse and provide implications for smartphone users for making privacy-related decisions more consciously rather than inconsiderately disclosing information. Also, the results would help marketers and policymakers design nudges and choice architectures that consider privacy decision-making hurdles.
