Abstract: This document describes techniques and systems for providing trusted computing for digital devices. The techniques and systems may use cryptographic algorithms to provide trusted computing and processing. By doing so, the techniques help ensure authentic computation and prevent nefarious acts. For example, a method is described that receives a signature associated with a designee and validates the signature. The signature may be associated with a designee of a host computing device, and the signature may be generated according to firmware associated with an integrated circuit of the host computing device and a first private key of a first asymmetric key pair. Signature validation may be based on a second asymmetric key pair having a second private key and a second public key, the second private key stored in write-once memory of the host computing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically inserting content into webpages. A computing device can receive an information resource. The computing device can receive a content item for insertion at one of the candidate content insertion locations of the information resource. The computing device can identify candidate content insertion locations for insertion of the content item based on locations of one or more elements on the information resource. The computing device can monitor for a scroll event on the information resource. The computing device can identify a portion of the information resource to be displayed within the viewport of the application subsequent to processing the event. The computing device can determine that one of the candidate insertion locations is within or below the viewport. The computing device can set a content slot at the determined content insertion location. The computing device can insert, at the content slot, the content item.

Abstract: Systems and methods of automatically detecting styles of properties of DOM elements of an information resource are disclosed. A data processing system including one or more processors can identify an information resource for which to automatically detect styles of properties used to style primary content of the information resource, identify at least one DOM container that contains at least a portion of the primary content, determine, for each of one or more DOM elements included in the DOM container, styles of properties corresponding to a respective DOM element, store, in a memory, the determined styles of properties corresponding to the respective DOM elements included in the DOM container and use the stored styles of properties to modify third-party content to be inserted within the information resource.

Abstract: At least one aspect is directed to a method of a method of automatically managing placement of content slots in an information resource. The method includes a data processing system receiving, from a computing device, a request for content and, in response, transmitting a content slot insertion script to the computing device. The content slot insertion script, when executed, can cause the computing device to identify one or more Document Object Model (DOM) elements included in the DOM tree of the information resource and determine one or more candidate third-party content placement locations according to a third-party content placement policy. The second plurality of computer-executable instructions, when executed on the computing device, can also cause the computing device to select, from the candidate third-party content placement locations, a third-party content placement location in the DOM tree and display a third-party content item at the selected ad placement location.

Abstract: Methods and systems for displaying content items on an information resource include identifying a supplemental content item to append to a DOM tree of the information resource and identifying a first content item displayed in a first container of the information resource. The methods also includes monitoring a position of a predetermined portion of the first content item relative to a viewport of the application and determining, responsive to monitoring the position of the predetermined portion of the first content item, that the first content item is visible within the viewport of the application. The method also includes appending the supplemental content item in a second container at a first position between the first container and an end of the information resource and displaying the supplemental content item within the viewport of the application responsive to detecting a scroll action towards the end of the information resource.

Abstract: Systems and methods of automatically detecting styles of properties of DOM elements of an information resource are disclosed. A data processing system including one or more processors can identify an information resource for which to automatically detect styles of properties used to style primary content of the information resource, identify at least one DOM container that contains at least a portion of the primary content, determine, for each of one or more DOM elements included in the DOM container, styles of properties corresponding to a respective DOM element, store, in a memory, the determined styles of properties corresponding to the respective DOM elements included in the DOM container and use the stored styles of properties to modify third-party content to be inserted within the information resource.

Abstract: In this board game, players take turns being the Chief and rating their level of agreement with prompts such as: “For $1000, I would be willing to wear the same underwear for a week without washing it.” The opinions are guessed using a scale from 1 (“Frostbite!—Completely Disagree”) to 10 (“All Ablaze!—Completely Agree”). Before the Chief reveals his/her rating, all of the other players guess the Chief's response using secret voting tokens, and all the votes are revealed simultaneously. At the end of the round, the closest matches score victory points. With over 700 cards already written, the prompts cover an enormous range of topics from intimate to hilarious, from every-day to fantastical, from family-oriented to party-friendly. Since the point system requires collecting points of all colors in order to win, you cannot win simply by knowing one other player extremely well.
