摘要: 随着移动网络和智能设备的普及,用户的地理位置信息被大量采集和利用,从而使数据隐私面临严峻挑战。在此背景下,用户不仅期望能得到有效的隐私安全保障,也对服务体验的质量提出了更高的要求。然而,保护用户位置隐私通常需要限制或模糊位置信息的精确性,这与提供个性化服务所需的高精度位置数据存在冲突。因此,如何在保护位置隐私和满足用户个性化需求之间进行权衡,成为了一个关键的科学问题。这一问题涉及到数据安全、用户体验和商业利益等多个领域,对于加强隐私保护、增强用户信任以及提升用户服务体验质量具有至关重要的作用。综述了近年来个性化位置隐私保护的研究进展。首先,分析了隐私泄露的原因和常见的攻击手段;接着,总结了位置隐私保护技术的定义及分类;然后,根据用户的个性化需求,探讨了如何在保障用户隐私偏好的基础上提供更适宜的位置隐私保护措施;最后,对个性化位置隐私保护技术的未来研究趋势进行了总结和展望。

关键词: 个性化, 基于位置服务, 位置隐私保护, 用户偏好, 隐私保护技术

Abstract: With the proliferation of mobile networks and smart devices,users' geographical location information is being extensively collected and utilized,posing severe challenges to data privacy.In this context,users not only expect to receive effective security safeguards,but also demand higher quality service experiences.However,protecting users' location privacy often requires limiting or blurring the precision of location information,which conflicts with the high-precision location data needed to provide personalized services.Therefore,how to balance location privacy protection and meeting users' personalized needs has become a critical scientific issue.This issue involves multiple domains such as data security,user experience,and commercial interests,and plays a crucial role in enhancing privacy protection,strengthening user trust,and improving the quality of user service experiences.This paper reviews the recent research progress in personalized location privacy protection.Firstly,it analyzes the causes of privacy breaches and common attack methods.Subsequently,it summarizes the definition and classification of location privacy protection technologies.Then,based on users' personalized needs,it discusses how to provide more suitable location privacy protection measures while ensuring users' privacy preferences.Finally,itsummarizes and looks forward to the future research trends in personalized location privacy protection technologies.

Key words: Personalization, Location-based service, Location privacy protection, User preference, Privacy protection technology
