Abstract :
We discuss how the notion of gradual information disclosure can be incorporated into basic social computing protocols, such as reputation based service selection. Our technique links the decrease in anonymity a subject is ready to endure (e.g., by disclosing the values of some of her attributes) to the weight her views will carry in the final outcome of the protocol.
