Abstract: A device, method and system for changing content of live broadcast media is provided. The device associated with a given location, and analyzes live broadcast media to determine presence of one or more of a person of interest (POI) and an event of interest (EOI), the live broadcast media being provided at one or more display screens at the given location, the live broadcast media originating external to the given location. The device analyzes one or more images captured by one or more cameras located at the given location to determine whether one or more of the POI and the EOI meets a condition for causing harm to one or more persons indicated in the one or more images. The device, responsive to the POI or the EOI meeting the condition, changes content of the live broadcast media.

Abstract: A process for protecting confidentiality of audio messages that are received at an electronic computing device for providing a corresponding audio output at electronic audio output devices. In operation, the electronic computing device partitions the audio message into audio content segments, where each audio content segment is assigned to a respective confidentiality level. The electronic computing device determines a current exposure level of the electronic audio output device. The electronic computing device further determines whether the audio message is to be modified based on a current exposure level of the electronic audio output device and the respective confidentiality level assigned to each audio content segment. An audio output corresponding to the modified audio message is provided at the electronic audio output device when it is determined that the audio message is to be modified.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for recommending that a user dial an emergency number to report an incident is provided herein. During operation, a user submits anonymous information about an incident to a tipping server. The tipping server determines if the incident that the user is reporting is unreported to an emergency number. If the incident remains unreported to an emergency number, the user is provided a suggestion to call an emergency number to report the incident.
