Abstract: The Internet of Things (IoT) is now an emerging global Internet‐based information architecture used to facilitate the exchange of goods and services. IoT‐related applications are aiming to bring technology to people anytime and anywhere, with any device. However, the use of IoT raises a privacy concern because data will be collected automatically from the network devices and objects which are embedded with IoT technologies. In the current applications, data collector is a dominant player who enforces the secure protocol that cannot be verified by the data owners. In view of this, some of the respondents might refuse to contribute their personal data or submit inaccurate data. In this paper, we study a self‐awareness data collection protocol to raise the confidence of the respondents when submitting their personal data to the data collector. Our self‐awareness protocol requires each respondent to help others in preserving his privacy. The communication (respondents and data collector) and collaboration (among respondents) in our solution will be performed automatically.
