Problems solved by technology
[0008] However, this solution is not effective in practice, because many users of such mobile terminals are completely unaware which application(s) are running on their mobile terminal and which of the application(s) is running on the unknown Servers send geolocation information, and many users are often not even aware of the privacy issues
[0009] Furthermore, with the rise of computing power and "big data" data sets (which are too large to be effectively managed by traditional database management means), if a user suddenly cuts off the geolocation means of his mobile terminal, he may inadvertently Creates a very recognizable and suspicious pattern of behavior that may trigger undesired research into confidential locations near the user's last known geographic location, and thus may cause the user to attempt to protect his privacy void

Embodiment Construction
[0034] In conjunction with this figure, a process for protecting the privacy of a user connected to a network through a terminal, such as an architecture for implementing such a process, will be described below, the terminal comprising a geographical position Geolocation information about the geolocation device.
[0035] The user's terminal may in particular be a mobile terminal such as a smartphone, and the geolocation means may be embedded in a dedicated module implemented to said terminal, such as a GPS module (for Global Positioning System). Furthermore, the geolocation information provided by such geolocation means may be geographic coordinates of the user's geographic location.
[0036] A user is connected in particular to a network for sending over said network a packet 1 comprising in particular data provided by a specific application implemented on said user's terminal, such as for example a multimedia player application . Specifically, packet 1 may be encoded in a ...

A procedure for protecting the privacy of a user connected to a network by a terminal comprising a geolocation device adapted to emit geolocation information relating to the geographical location of said user, said procedure providing:-analyzing data from grouping (1) of said terminals to detect the eventual presence of geolocation information (2) in said grouping; - replace detection in said grouping with virtual geolocation information (9, 9a) already calculated for said user the received geolocation information; - forwarding the packet with the virtual geolocation information through the network.
Description
technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a procedure for protecting the privacy of a user connected to a network through a terminal comprising a device adapted to emit geolocation information related to the geographic location of said user, such as an architecture for implementing such a procedure. device. Background technique [0002] As the network capacity and processing power of mobile terminals, such as smart phones, continue to grow, many such mobile terminals are connected to the Internet almost continuously. [0003] This state of constant connection means that mobile terminals should be adapted to benefit from fast network connections while providing their users with the same quality of experience as stationary terminals such as desktop computers, regardless of the user's geographical location. where. [0004] On the other hand, in such a state of continuous connection, the concept of security and privacy protection is more and more worthy of discus...
