Abstract
The use of online social networks has become a crucial activity for individuals in recent years. Users have started to share more data in online social networking platforms. The shared content sometimes includes more than one user’s information. This type of data sharing has caused privacy issues as users are only informed after the sharing process is completed. Although, many of the current studies have focused on applying group decision making in data sharing processes, this technique remains a challenge. In this study, we provide a framework in which a consensus-based group decision making process is used in order to take the best decision in co-owned data sharing processes in online social networking.

Summary
In Group Decision Making (GDM), different alternatives are taken into account to reach the most appropriate decision. In GDM process, a group of experts, with different backgrounds and viewpoint, are presented with a problem They provide their opinions to reach an aggregated solution in a given situation [1]. The importance of consensus reaching process, in online social network group decision making (OSNGDM), has been taken into consideration. In Contrast, this study proposes a framework for OSNs to provide a view of OSNGDM on co-owned data sharing processes. This study uses the trust values in the application of Extended Induced Ordered Weighted Averaging (EIOWA) technique in order to select the best alternative. A consensus-reached group decision making framework has been proposed for OSNs. The trust values between decision makers are associated with CRPs. 2.
