Your public items have no identified permissions attached to them - they are public. If you restrict who can see these items, there is no way of making any single item public ever again - without allowing access to every public item you ever created.

[li]Anybody in your address book. Anybody you do not know will have this permission denied, but anybody you accept as a contact will have this permission approved. This is the way most legacy platforms handle permissions.[/li]
