<p>The present invention relates to using authorization information provided by an asserting agent to control insight-related interactions between a receiving agent and an insight agent. The insight may be information that relates to an entity with whom or a device with which the asserting agent is associated. Such insight is generally referred to as insight of the asserting agent. An insight source maintains the insight of the asserting agent, and the insight agent provides controlled access to the insight by the receiving agent through the insight-related interactions. For others to gain access to at least certain of the asserting agent's insight, the asserting agent must authorize the insight agent to provide the asserting agent's insight to the receiving agent. Upon obtaining the proper authorization, the insight agent will interact with the receiving agent and distribute the asserting agent's insight to the receiving agent.</p> |
