Tweeting Privately

Twitsper: Tweeting Privately
ABSTRACT:
While OSNs today provide some form of privacy controls to protect a user’s shared content from other users, these controls are not sufficiently expressive to provide fine grained protection. In this article, we introduce Twitsper, to support fine-grained control over who sees a user’s messages. Twitsper provides privacy controls to the users of Twitter today without relying on Twitter to make changes. This is because it is a wrapper around Twitter that enables private group communication while preserving Twitter’s commercial interests. It preserves privacy both from the Twitsper server as well as from undesired Twitsper users.
EXISTING SYSTEM:
Currently, Twitter provides its users only two kinds of privacy controls—the ability to share content with all their followers (using tweets) or with exactly one follower (using direct messages)
DISADVANTAGES OF EXISTING SYSTEM:
] Controls aren’t sufficiently expressive to provide fine-grained protection.
] No private group communication.
PROPOSED SYSTEM:
In this article, we introduce Twitsper, a wrapper over Twitter that provides privacy controls to the users of Twitter today without relying on Twitter to make changes. Currently, Twitter provides its users only two kinds of privacy controls—the ability to share content with all their followers (using tweets) or with exactly one follower (using Direct Messages).Twitsper enables users to share content with any subset of their followers, without requiring the followers to migrate to a new application or OSN.
ADVANTAGES OF PROPOSED SYSTEM:
Ø Sharing private information with some followers, Twitsper can also be used to segment information and send only relevant information to subsets of followers.
Ø While Twitsper does not hide content from Twitter itself, some users may desire to do so. This raises a different set of challenges and may impact Twitter’s revenue model.
Ø We created Twitsper to enable users to share content with any subset of their followers without requiring the followers to migrate to a new application or online social network (OSN).
