  • Patent number: 10733225
    Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for scaled delivery of media content. The systems and methods assign a set of proposed designations to a plurality of media content. The systems and methods select a set of media content from the plurality of media content based on the set of proposed designations and distribute a subset of media content of the set of media content to a selected user of a plurality of users. The subset of media content is presented at a computing device associated with the selected user. The systems and methods receive a set of indicators for each media content of the subset of media content. Each indicator represents an interaction with a media content of the subset of media content. The systems and methods cause presentation of an interaction notification at the computing device associated with the selected user.

  • Patent number: 10728358
    Abstract: The systems and methods discussed herein provide for faster access to frequently utilized resources through intelligent bandwidth usage-based content pre-fetching. An intelligent acceleration and caching device may monitor bandwidth utilization over a time period and create a regression-based model to predict bandwidth utilization in subsequent time periods. When predicted utilization is below a threshold, the device may pre-fetch frequently accessed content, providing low-latency access and faster performance, without exceeding connection allocation limits.

  • Patent number: 10701021
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes a device receiving a request to connect a minor with another user within a social-networking system. The minor and the user may be associated with a first and a second account, respectively. The device may identify the minor's guardian. A first approval request may be sent to the minor or the guardian to seek approval of the requested connection between the minor and the other user. The first approval request may be sent to the guardian upon determining that the request is initiated by the minor, or it may be sent to the minor upon determining that the request is initiated by the guardian. The device may send a second approval request to the other user to seek approval of the requested connection as well. When the requests are approved, a connection may then be established between the minor and the other user.
