Abstract

See full text

When a user is about to perform a “communicative act” (e.g., to send an e-mail or to post to a social-networking site), the proposed communicative act is reviewed to see if it may lead to a privacy leak. If, upon review, it is determined that performing the proposed communicative act could lead to a privacy leak, then an appropriate response is taken, such as preventing the proposed act from being performed or suggesting a modification to the proposed act that would lessen the likelihood of a privacy leak. A privacy server creates a privacy profile for a user based on information about the user's personae and how those personae are used. Using that profile, the privacy server can judge whether a proposed communicative act would support an unwanted inference.
