    Abstract: Various embodiments safeguard location visitation information, such as visitation counter information, for a location or place that can be visited by one or more users of a user-based system. According to various embodiments, one or more of the techniques or mechanisms described herein can be used to safeguard user visitation information on a user-based platform: a user's allow list (or block list) that indicates which location visitation information for the user can be shown to another user on the platform; using a visitation category, such as a label, in place of a visitation count when displaying information with respect to a location; using a count of users on a user's connected-users list to determine how visitation count information for a location will be presented or displayed to the user; or adding a certain level of noise to location visitation information that is presented to a user.

    Abstract: When a messaging system generates connection recommendations for a new user, who first registers with the messaging system, the signals available for generation of recommendations may be limited to the user's contact book matches. Using just this limited signal poses a concern associated with leaking information about users represented by the recommendations. The technical problem of generating connection recommendations for a user at registration time in a privacy-safe manner is addressed by a recommendation methodology that obscures the connection source and the connection distance of the recommended profiles.
