Abstract :
Although today´s online social networks provide some privacy controls to protect a user´s shared content from other users, these controls aren´t sufficiently expressive to provide fine-grained protection. Twitsper offers fine-grained control over who sees a Twitter user´s messages, enabling private group communication while preserving Twitter´s commercial interests.
