TLDR
The mix zone is introduced-a new construction inspired by anonymous communication techniques-together with metrics for assessing user anonymity, based on frequently changing pseudonyms.Abstract:
As location-aware applications begin to track our movements in the name of convenience, how can we protect our privacy? This article introduces the mix zone-a new construction inspired by anonymous communication techniques-together with metrics for assessing user anonymity. It is based on frequently changing pseudonyms.read more

The new Casper: query processing for location services without compromising privacy
TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper presented Casper1, a new framework in which mobile and stationary users can entertain location-based services without revealing their location information, which consists of two main components, the location anonymizer and the privacy-aware query processor.

An anonymous communication technique using dummies for location-based services
TL;DR: This paper proposes an anonymous communication technique to protect the location privacy of the users of location-based services and describes a cost reduction technique for communication between a client and a server.
Journal ArticleDOI
A survey of computational location privacy
TL;DR: This is a literature survey of computational location privacy, meaning computation-based privacy mechanisms that treat location data as geometric information, which includes privacy-preserving algorithms like anonymity and obfuscation as well as privacy-breaking algorithms that exploit the geometric nature of the data.

Untraceable electronic mail, return addresses, and digital pseudonyms
TL;DR: A technique based on public key cryptography is presented that allows an electronic mail system to hide who a participant communicates with as well as the content of the communication - in spite of an unsecured underlying telecommunication system.
Untraceable Electronic Mail, Return Addresses and Digital Pseudonyms.
TL;DR: In this article, a technique based on public key cryptography is presented that allows an electronic mail system to hide who a participant communicates with as well as the content of the communication -in spite of an unsecured underlying telecommunication system.
