| 2025 | Security and Privacy Experiences of First- and Second-Generation Pakistani Immigrants to the US: Perceptions, Practices, Challenges, and Parent-Child DynamicsabstractThis work explores the security and privacy perceptions, practices, and challenges Pakistani immigrants face in the US. We also explore how parent-child dynamics affect immi-grants' learning about and adaptation to security and privacy practices in the US. Through 25 semi-structured interviews with Pakistani immigrants, we find that first-generation immigrants perceive heightened risks of discrimination, surveillance, and isolation due to their status as Muslim immigrants. They also report tensions regarding self-expression and self-censorship in online settings. In contrast, second-generation immigrants quickly adapt to life in the US and do not perceive most of these challenges. We find that first- and second-generation immigrants mutually support each other in learning to use technology and reacting to perceived threats. Our findings underscore an urgent need for tailored digital safety initiatives and designs that consider the unique needs of at-risk populations to ensure their security and privacy. Recognizing and addressing these challenges can foster more inclusive digital landscapes, empowering immigrant populations with resilience and agency.
