Description
Make possible to limit visibility or commenting (separately) to friends of friends or friends of friends of friends. Checking may be performed through a third-party service that everyone trusts the friendship information. Or the node itself may scan friend lists periodically (but this creates more traffic and not every node may keep its friendship information open even to friends).
Some friends known that they are public persons and it is too easy to become their friends, may be excluded from scanning. Their friends are not permitted, unless they are friends of someone else that is trusted. The third-party service mentioned above may keep a shared list of such public persons (but every node may override the data fetched from the list in their own settings).
