论文摘要
随着有关我们的行动和选择的数据在互联网中积累的数据部分不为我们,部分原因是我们自己的选择。通常,人们希望关于自己的一些数据是私人的,而其他一些日期可能是公开的,甚至出于宣传原因甚至希望公开。有不同的标准来表征数据的匿名程度。给定的数据也可以通过不同的技术匿名化,以提高其匿名程度。在本文中,我们将非常简单的“原子”程度匿名作为我们的起点。我们将这些原子公理化,并根据这些原子对一级逻辑进行研究。考虑到庞大的文献和匿名的巨大重要性,我们的调查似乎很谦虚。但是,这是关于匿名的逻辑,而不是如何保护,创建或破坏匿名性。
Anonymity has gained notoriety in modern times as data about our actions and choices accumulates in the internet partly unbeknownst to us and partly by our own choice. Usually people wish some data about themselves were private while some other date may be public or is even wanted to be public for publicity reasons. There are different criteria which characterize the degree of anonymity of data. Given data can also be anonymized by different techniques in order to increase its degree of anonymity. In this paper we take a very simple "atomic" degree of anonymity as our starting place. We axiomatize these atoms and propose the investigation of first order logic based on these atoms. Considering the vast literature and the huge importance of anonymity our investigation may seem quite modest. However, it is about the logic of anonymity, not about how to secure, create or break anonymity.
