CPC Class H04W

Systems and methods for providing updates to an electronic device are provided. Upon receiving an update statement, indicating availability of an update to an application on an electronic device, a determination is made as to whether an update notification threshold has been met at the electronic device based upon the indication of availability of the update to the application. When the update notification threshold has been met at the electronic device, a graphical indication of the availability of the update to the application is provided. However, when the update notification threshold has not been met, the graphical indication of the availability of the update to the application is not provided.

Embodiments of systems and methods for implementing data sovereignty safeguards in a distributed services network architecture are disclosed. Embodiments of a distributed services system may have a number of distributed nodes that each implements a set of services. When a user requests a service at a particular node of a distributed services system, the node is configured to determine if that node is not (or is) data sovereign for a region associated with the user. If the node is not data sovereign for the user's region, the user may be directed to a corresponding service at a node of the distributed service system that is data sovereign for the user's region.

Disclosed examples include an interface; programmable circuitry; and instructions to cause the programmable circuitry to: detect a person in physical proximity of a client device; and initiate activation of one or more privacy filters at the client device to blur information via a videoconferencing application.

Systems, methods, and devices for obfuscation of browser fingerprint data are disclosed. In one embodiment, in an information processing apparatus comprising at least one computer processor, a method may include: (1) receiving an electronic communication from an electronic device to a destination; (2) identifying a raw device fingerprint value in the electronic communication from an electronic device; (3) selecting at least one replacement value for the raw device fingerprint value; (4) replacing the raw device fingerprint value with the replacement value in the electronic communication; and (5) sending the electronic communication with the replacement value to the destination.

An augmented reality (AR) device is interfaced to an Internet of Things (IoT) device by receiving IoT device information in a standardized schema from the IoT device. The IoT device information includes device inputs and available output information for the IoT device. A predetermined AR user interface widget to render for the IoT device is determined from the received IoT device information. The predetermined AR user interface widget converts user inputs to the AR device into the device inputs for the IoT device. Upon selection of the IoT device by the AR device, the predetermined AR user interface widget for the selected IoT device is provided to the AR device as an overlay on a display of the AR device. Device input received in response to user interaction with the AR user interface widget is provided to the IoT device in an input type expected by the IoT device.
