We examine the problem of providing differential privacy for nearest neighbor queries. Very few mechanisms exist that achieve this, most notable geo-indistinguishability in the context of location privacy. However it uses an extended definition of differential privacy and restricts the sensitivity of queries.

“Easter eggs” are features hidden inside software, and the practice of developers including them is a long-standing global phenomenon. They have seen some investigation in the context of games, but despite their prevalence in non-game software applications, their nature within this context is less clear.
