Facebook Privacy Management Simplified

摘要

Online social media such as Facebook has started transforming our lives in the past few years. One of the main user concerns in social media is the privacy of personal information. Although social media provides options to manage privacy, those user settings are often complicated, vague, and not user friendly. In this paper, we propose an automated and simple way to manage Facebook privacy by changing the privacy to three predefined levels: basic, medium, and advanced. For platform independence and wide usability, we discuss the development of the proposed application in two different flavors: a PHP application and Firefox add-on.
