Soft Logic and the Privacy Paradox

This chapter develops the idea of applying Soft logic to understanding aspects of human behavior. The psychologist Freud developed the theory of the unconscious: A person has inner drives and desires that he is not aware of, which nevertheless influence his behavior and feelings. This theory in itself suggests an inner component and an outer component that is revealed to a person. We can translate this fact using the terms of Soft logic. One real axis expresses the revealed world, and the zero axis expresses the inner and unconscious world.
