Proximity based services are location based services (LBS) in which the service adaptation depends on the comparison between a given threshold value and the distance between a user and other (possibly moving) entities. While privacy preservation in LBS has lately received much attention, very limited work has been done on privacy-aware proximity based services. This paper describes the main privacy...
Protecting privacy of mobile users of location-based services is a currently interesting research problem. Most protection techniques can be categorized into either those providing location privacy or those guaranteeing k-anonymity. A mobile user (i) has location privacy if, when he makes an LBS request, adversaries cannot tell his location precise enough to cause privacy concerns, and (ii) has k-anonymity...
