Enforce preservation of activity event privacy

With Enforce preservation of activity event privacy turned off, a user can make a private activity stream item public by targeting it to additional people or communities, or by sharing to the same. Aurea Social cautions the user against doing so, but it does not prevent them from doing it.

With Enforce preservation of activity event privacy turned on, activity items retains its security scope. A user is unable to show a message from a private community to a wider audience by sharing it with, or @-targeting it to, another person, sphere, or community.

In this example, a private sphere is added to a post.

Then a public community is added to the same post.

The user is told that this is not allowed and the post is blocked from being added to the stream.
