The diploma thesis presents protocols for tracking contacts. The protocols are divided into two main groups, namely centralized and decentralized protocols. For all protocols, how they work is described, and their vulnerabilities are highlighted. The concept of anonymity on the Internet, its importance for users and the advantages and disadvantages of a high level of anonymity are also presented. Then, the method of assessing the levels of anonymity is presented, and for all the presented protocols, an assessment of the level of anonymity is provided. In addition, our subjective metric is presented, according to which individual protocols are evaluated according to the level of expected trust they should evoke in the average user.
