Recent trends in computing have enabled the provision of location-based services, offering practicality and convenience to users. Moreover, this has also given rise to new challenges and vulnerabilities that can potentially compromise user privacy. As these services are predominantly used on handheld devices, the risk of security breaches is higher. This research collates existing studies that have conducted quantitative and qualitative comparisons and analyses on how to address related challenges, with a particular focus on protecting user privacy in location-based services.
