We propose to structure the privacy settings interface as the information that
a particular audience – search, network, friend, or self – can see. This will help
the user associate privacy settings with how their information is presented to
different people instead of with lists of privacy menus. We envision this
interface to be a series of tabbed pages, where each page presents a separate
audience view of a profile, along with controls for showing or hiding
information to that group. Thus, the interface naturally provides visual
feedback as to the effect of modifying privacy settings, along with an accurate
mental model of what information is shared with whom.
