SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROTECTING MESSAGES UTILIZING A HIDDEN RESTRICTION MECHANISM |
摘要 |
A computing device executing an instant messaging application receives a selection from a user specifying at least one instant message conversation record to hide from view. The selected conversation record is hidden from view in response to occurrence of an event of a first type. In response to the occurrence of an event of a second type, a timer hidden from the user is launched. An unlock procedure is received from the user, where the user enters the unlock procedure. In response to the entered unlock procedure matching a predetermined unlock procedure prior to expiration of the timer, the corresponding hidden conversation record is made viewable and is accessible again by the user. |
