The first thing you need to do is define how you, as a human being, would judge the similarity of the sets. For example, you start with a set (A), and you make an exact copy (B). You will (presumably) judge these as very similar.
Once you've decided how you would make the judgement, then you stand some chance of being able to lay out a set of rules. And once you have that, you can start to look for a good way to implement them. With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
