Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Differential privacy software adds random noise to individual data elements, making it difficult to link them to a specific individual or group. This reduces the ability to merge different files and de-anonymize consumer data. Anonymous surfing and remailers hide an individual's online activities and identity, but do not specifically address data merging and de-anonymization. Public key encryption is used to secure communications and data in transit, but does not directly address data merging and de-anonymization.
