Patent number: 11470051Abstract: Techniques are described that enable a user to create and use a secret user account on a social networking system that is undiscoverable by other user accounts unless invited to interact by the secret account. In some cases, a social networking system receives a request to create a secret account, and creates the secret account. The social networking system may provide, in association with the secret account, account settings for the secret account that cause the social networking system to exclude the secret account from search results on the social networking system, and obscure activity by the secret account from a first user account. The social networking system may cause presentation of a control in a user interface associated with the secret account to invite a second user account to interact with the secret account.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2020Date of Patent: October 11, 2022Assignee: Meta Platforms, Inc.Inventors: Laycee Berkas, Elizabeth Inglese, Tyler Bradin Gross

Patent number: 11449633Abstract: A mobile application privacy analysis system is described, where the system scans a mobile device to identify files associated with a particular SDK and generates a tokenized name for the SDK. The tokenized name includes tokens representing the SDK vendor and one or more functions of the SDK. Using the tokenized name, the system then determines corresponding categories for each functionality token and score for each such category. Based on the scores, the system determines the most significant category and assigns that category to the SDK for use in privacy analysis. The system may also, or instead, determine a vendor category using the vendor token and assign that category to the SDK. Weighting factors may be applied to the scores for the categories associated with the functionality tokens and vendor tokens.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2022Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignee: OneTrust, LLCInventors: Kevin Jones, Pratik Doshi, Jonathan Blake Brannon, Prabhu Kumar
