Abstract: The disclosure includes a system and method for processing content spoilers. The system includes a controller, a progress module, a determination module, a warning module and a presentation module. The controller receives activity data describing an activity performed by a first user and content data published by a second user. The progress module determines a first progress stage for a subject associated with the activity based at least in part on the activity data. The determination module determines whether the content data includes a spoiler for the first user based at least in part on the first progress stage. Responsive to the determination that the content data includes the spoiler, the warning module obscures the content data published by the second user from the first user and generates a spoiler warning. The presentation module provides the spoiler warning to the first user.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and machine-readable media for blurring location information for an entity. The system may be configured to receive a location display setting comprising a condition and a blur level to apply to location coordinates, receive location coordinates for an entity, determine whether the condition is satisfied based on the location coordinates, and, if the condition is satisfied, report location information for the entity in a mapping interface based on the location coordinates for the entity and the blur level.

Abstract: Systems and methods for customizing video include providing a portion of video to an electronic display and identifying a character or personality in the portion of video. A request to perform an action regarding the portion of video may be detected and the action may be associated with the identified character or personality. The action may be performed on a second portion of video in response to the character or personality being identified in the second portion of video.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a video alert include providing a first portion of video to an electronic display and analyzing a second portion of video while the first portion of video is being provided to the electronic display. A character or personality may be identified in the second portion of video and an alert provided based in part on the character or personality being identified in the second portion of video.

Abstract: A method, and a corresponding system, enable an advertiser to provide advertisements to viewers based on viewer feedback. The method includes providing advertisements for display to a viewer on a first electronic media display device; receiving a favorability signal for a first advertisement displayed to the viewer, the favorability signal originating from a second electronic media display device independent of the first electronic media display device, the second electronic media display device operated by the viewer; computing a favorability value from the favorability signal, the favorability value based on additional favorability signals; comparing the favorability value to a threshold; and if the favorability value is less than the threshold, replacing the first advertisement with a second advertisement for subsequent display to the viewer.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling one or more settings of a vehicle using a device comprising an electronic circuit is disclosed. The electronic circuit is configured to obtain a position of a passenger within the vehicle, identify said passenger, obtain information comprising one or more setting preferences for said passenger use the position and at least one of the information to determine whether one or more settings need to be changed, and change the one or more settings based on the position and identity of the passenger. The electronic circuit is also configured to identifying a driver, compare the identity of the driver with a predetermined list of drivers of the vehicle, and change a plurality of operational parameters based on the identity of the driver.
