Document Summary

Social networking sites vary in the levels of privacy offered. For some social networking sites like facebook, providing real names and other personal information is encouraged by the site (onto a page is known as a "profile"). This information usually consists of the birth date, current address, and telephone number(s). Some sites also allow users to provide more information about themselves such as interests, hobbies, favourite books or films, and even relationship status. However, there are other social network sites, such as match. com, where most people prefer to be anonymous. Thus, linking users to their real identity can sometimes be rather difficult. Nevertheless, individuals can sometimes be identified with face re-identification. Studies have been done on two major social networking sites, and it is found that by overlapping 15% of the similar photographs, profile pictures with similar pictures over multiple sites can be matched to identify the users.
