研究探讨了亲密伴侣虐待支持应用被废弃的问题,通过分析197个工具的数据集,发现58.9%的应用已失去支持。
📝 Abstract
Many support applications are developed to help users living through intimate partner abuse (IPA). However, many of those projects get abandoned, because the application was a prototype that never got turned into an actual product, funding ran out, or the people maintaining it moved onto other projects. This abandonment can have devastating consequences because the users of these applications are vulnerable by definition. In this ongoing research, we aim to measure the abandonment of intimate partner abuse support applications. Our preliminary results with a dataset of 197 support tools indicate that 58.9\% of applications have lost support over time, either no longer receiving updates or not being available online at all.
