  • Patent number: 10366251
    Abstract: Systems and method for alerting a user device based on a proposed anonymization of a contribution to a conversation thread via one or several location-based anonymization rules are disclosed herein. The system can include a user device that can have location-determining features that can determine a physical location of the user device; a network interface that can exchange data with a server via a communication network; and an I/O subsystem that can convert electrical signals to user-interpretable outputs in a user interface. The system can include a server that can: receive a contribution from the user device; determine an anonymization level for applying to the contribution; identify a potential identifier in the content of the contribution; anonymize the potential identifier according to the determined anonymization level; and generate and provide an alert to the user device.

  • Publication number: 20080137668
    Abstract: A social semantic network provides for the efficient distribution of digital objects between users of that network. People in the network are connected by labeled edges that define relationships. Any person can create content in the form of particles, and by labeling that content, can determine how that content is distributed through the network. Labeled particles travel through each node in the network based on comparisons of the particle label with each edge label when exiting that node. Propagation can be controlled by the person at each node through which the particle travels or, alternatively, the system can be adapted to propagate particles one or two nodes at a time. Thus, a decentralized push-based system for distributing content is achieved without extensive regulation of that which is “appropriate” for consumers.
