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.
