Abstract
While using social software and interacting with others on the Internet, users share a lot of information about themselves. An important issue for these users is maintaining control over their own personal data and being aware to whom which data is disclosed. In this chapter, we present specific requirements and realised solutions to these problems for two different kinds of social software: social network sites and web forums.
