Abstract: A unified search entity, which provides at least visual query based web searching and an associated mechanism for expressing privacy preferences, obtains, from a requester, a visual query including at least a first facial image. The unified search entity identifies, via facial recognition on the at least first facial image, an identity of an individual subject of the at least first facial image and/or at least a second facial image of the individual subject associated with the at least first facial image. The unified search entity obtains, from the individual, via the mechanism for expressing privacy preferences, a plurality of privacy preferences including a visual query preference. The identity of the individual subject and/or the at least second facial image are communicated from the unified search entity to the requester only if permitted by the visual query preference.

Abstract: A system and method for accessing web content are provided. In one aspect, a method includes providing an interface on a web browsing application to display a plurality of virtual locations, receiving a user selection of a virtual location from the plurality of virtual locations, selecting an accessible server from a plurality of accessible servers in or near a physical location corresponding to the selected virtual location, requesting an origin server to route a request to access web content to the selected server, wherein web content corresponds to content for an electronic device located in or near the physical location corresponding to the selected virtual location, receiving, in response to the request, the web content from the selected server, and providing the received web content for display on the web browsing application, wherein the web content is different than the web content corresponding to a physical location of the user.

Based on the marking, it is determined whether the request from the second user to upload the digital visual medium is inappropriate.

Abstract: Example implementations described herein are directed to a trust tree that allows third party applications to operate on sensitive user data within the confines of a protected environment. The environment storing the sensitive user data prevents the third party application from receiving sensitive user data through use of an overlay, while preserving the function of the third party application. This permits the value of the application to be provided to a user without the risk of the application violating the user's privacy.
