Abstract: In various embodiments, a method of content access device geolocation verification includes determining local geolocation information, identifying proximate content access devices that are associated with a content delivery network provider, and transmitting the information to a content delivery network provider device that takes an action if a location of a content access device mismatches a recorded location. In some embodiments, a content delivery network provider device receives local geolocation information and data regarding identified proximate content access devices from an electronic device, analyzes the information to determine whether a location of a content access device mismatches a recorded location, and, if the location of the content access device mismatches the recorded location, takes an action.

Abstract: Generally discussed herein are systems, devices, and methods for determining if a circuit is acting improperly. A system can include a module to receive proper performance values of a circuit, a module to receive improper performance values of the circuit, a module to compare actual circuit input characteristics (Xa) and actual circuit output characteristics (Ya) to X, Y, D, and Z to determine if the circuit is more likely operating properly or more likely operating improperly, and an alert module to, in response to determining the circuit is operating improperly, provide an alert to personnel indicating that the circuit is operating improperly or providing one or more signals to the circuit that cause the circuit to alter its current operation.
