Quantifying Location Privacy [PDF]

open access: yes2011 IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy, 2011
It is a well-known fact that the progress of personal communication devices leads to serious concerns about privacy in general, and location privacy in particular. As a response to these issues, a number of Location-Privacy Protection Mechanisms (LPPMs) have been proposed during the last decade.

On the Privacy Implications of Location Semantics [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings on Privacy Enhancing Technologies, 2016
Abstract Mobile users increasingly make use of location-based online services enabled by localization systems. Not only do they share their locations to obtain contextual services in return (e.g., ‘nearest restaurant’), but they also share, with their friends, information about the venues (e.g., the type, such as a restaurant or a ...

On-the-Fly Privacy for Location Histograms [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Dependable and Secure Computing, 2022
An important motivation for research in location privacy has been to protect against user profiling, i.e., inferring a user’s political affiliation, wealth level, sexual preferences, religious beliefs and other sensitive attributes. Existing approaches focus on distorting or suppressing individual locations, but we argue that, for directly protecting ...

Collaborative Location Privacy [PDF]

open access: yes2011 IEEE Eighth International Conference on Mobile Ad-Hoc and Sensor Systems, 2011
Location-aware smart phones support various location-based services (LBSs): users query the LBS server and learn on the fly about their surroundings. However, such queries give away private information, enabling the LBS to identify and track users. We address this problem by proposing the first, to the best of our knowledge, user-collaborative privacy ...
