Re: How can users protect their foaf profile

Another solution to protect your FOAF profile:

You can make your FOAF profile privately protected and have a manager 
that, after authenticating with WebID, can only grant access to specific 
information of your FOAF profile. You create preferences (which we call 
privacy preferences) using the Privacy Preference Ontology (PPO), to 
specify which specific information you want to share. More info about 
the PPO and this manager can be found at [1]. More technical info about 
this manager will be published shortly, however in the mean time you can 
take a look at the screencasts at [2].
