  • Abstract
    The housing of personal data on large online social networks arouses concerns from privacy advocates and leery users. Researchers have proposed decentralized architectures to create online social networks with technically imposed privacy preservation. This survey of several approaches discusses their privacy benefits, architecture, and suitability for mobile devices.
