Abstract

The invention discloses a social network location sharing method based on privacy protection. When a user's location changes, multiple fake locations will be generated, and then sent to the location server together with their real location through a social network server; when querying the location of nearby friends When , the social network server inserts the user's friend list and sends it to the location server according to the user's request message. Forward the final result to the user. The location sharing method proposed by the present invention does not depend on a third-party server, can effectively solve the location privacy exposure problem existing in the traditional location sharing method, and has great practical value in social network application scenarios.
