Abstract
A social network aggregation platform collects user generated content from multiple disparate social network platforms. The platform includes methods and systems for maintaining and applying user-selected and/or platform-specific privacy settings to the content when distributed or published. User privacy settings are compiled across platforms and used as a filter list against user-generated content. As a content stream is ingested into a platform, the source(s) of the invention content items are checked and the appropriate privacy settings are applied.
