We are a group of researchers at Florida Institute of Technology in the US. We have developed an add on that focuses on protecting the privacy of users on their MQTT devices. We are looking for participants to partake in a study we designed to evaluate our add on. Essentially you will be installing the add on and complete a few tasks we asked you to do. Your participation can help us improve our add on and thus help others use an improved version of it.
The experiment should take around 30 minutes. Upon participating in our research, you will enter a draw for a chance to win one of four $75 Amazon Gift cards.
Hey Nick,
The source code is available on Github. I didn’t share it here because I want the participants to use the add-on for the first time and see how they do. The goal is to see if users are able to use the add-on and its configuration successfully.
I hope you understand why I didn’t include the code here.
Thank you and let me know if you have any more questions.
Hey Nick,
Thank you for your feedback.
Do you think it would be better to share the Github source code here and ask those who are willing to participate to not use the add on now. I’m genuinely asking and I understand your doubts completely. Do you have any other suggestions or advice?
