【 摘 要 】

Social network services on the internet are moving from a traditional web-based service into ubiquitous computing environments. With this migration these services will also benet from the contextawares that ubiquitous computing oers. Applications that sense the environment and act proactively, requires an immaculate attention to users' privacy. The work presented here approaches privacy by employing the principle of minimum asymmetry to a mobile social network service. We demonstrate how this principle can be implemented on a simple location-aware application running on standard mobile telephones in a traditional GSM network.
