Abstract: A system may be configured to allow for storage of location information regarding a set of user devices. The location information may be updated relatively frequently, and without introducing additional traffic into a wireless telecommunications network associated with the user devices. The location information may be made available to internal devices associated with the wireless telecommunications network and/or to external third party devices (such as banks, payment card processors, or advertisers) with user consent. Since the information is obtained and stored prior to requests, the location information may be provided, in response to requests, relatively quickly.

Abstract: A multimedia messaging service (MMS) center (MMSC) receives an MMS message associated with forwarding multimedia content, associated with a source device, to a recipient device. The multimedia content is tagged with tagging data that is generated based on a numerical key. The MMSC parses the modified MMS message to determine the source device and the tagging data. MMSC uses the tagging data to determine the sending device using the tagging data. For example, the MMSC may access an identifier for the sending device, as stored by a subscriber profile controller, using the tagging data and/or a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) interface. The MMSC determines whether the source device associated with the MMS message corresponds to the sending device (e.g., whether the MMS message correctly identifies the sending device), and the MMSC discards the MMS message when the source device and the sending device differ.

Abstract: A system is configured to receive, from a user device, a request for content; obtain, based on receiving the request, an identifier for a subscriber associated with the system and a key; encode the identifier and the key to create a unique identifier; store the unique identifier in the request to create a modified request; provide the modified request to a content provider identified by the request; receive, from the content provider, the content and targeted content, the targeted content being associated with the unique identifier and conforming to an attribute of the subscriber; and provide, to the user device, the content and the targeted content.
