However, its methods often involve large-scale data collection and user observation, raising complex ethical questions. While recent research has identified ethical challenges in Internet measurement research and laid out best practices, little is known about how researchers actually make ethical decisions in their research practice. To understand how these practices take shape day-to-day from the perspective of Internet measurement researchers, we interviewed 16 researchers from an Internet measurement research group in the EU. Through thematic analysis, we find that researchers deal with five main ethical challenges: privacy and consent issues, the possibility of unintended harm, balancing transparency with security and accountability, uncertain ethical boundaries, and hurdles in the ethics review process. Researchers address these by lab testing, rate limiting, setting up clear communication channels, and relying heavily on mentors and colleagues for guidance. Researchers express that ethical requirements vary across institutions, jurisdictions and conferences, and ethics review boards often lack the technical knowledge to evaluate Internet measurement research. We also highlight the invisible labor of Internet measurement researchers and describe their ethics practices as craft knowledge, both of which are crucial in upholding responsible research practices in the Internet measurement community. %K Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction, cs.HC,Computer Science, Computers and Society, cs.CY,cs.SI

We<br>focus our analysis on the research on the crucial population of experts, whose<br>human errors can impact many systems at once, and compare it to research on<br>regular users. To understand how far we advanced in the area of human factors,<br>how the field can further mature, and to provide a point of reference for<br>researchers new to this field, we analyzed the past decade of human factors<br>research in security and privacy, identifying 557 relevant publications. Of<br>these, we found 48 publications focused on expert users and analyzed all in<br>depth. For additional insights, we compare them to a stratified sample of 48<br>end-user studies.<br> In this paper we investigate:<br> (i) The perspective on human factors, and how we can learn from safety<br>science (ii) How and who are the participants recruited, and how this -- as we<br>find -- creates a western-centric perspective (iii) Research objectives, and<br>how to align these with the chosen research methods (iv) How theories can be<br>used to increase rigor in the communities scientific work, including<br>limitations to the use of Grounded Theory, which is often incompletely applied<br>(v) How researchers handle ethical implications, and what we can do to account<br>for them more consistently<br> Although our literature review has limitations, new insights were revealed<br>and avenues for further research identified.<br> %K Computer Science, Computers and Society, cs.CY,Computer Science, Cryptography and Security, cs.CR,Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction, cs.HC
