Abstract :
Location information is considered as private in many scenarios. Location information protection on social networks has not been paid much attention. In this paper, we extend our previous proposed location privacy protection approach on the basis of user messages in social networks. Our approach grants flexibility to users by offering them multiple protecting options. The extension includes performance evaluation towards our approach.
