Anonymous calling

摘要

Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer-readable media for initiating anonymous communication between a first user and a second user. In particular, an anonymous communication request is transmitted from a first user to a session management node. The anonymous communication request may include search criteria provided by the first user. Based on the search criteria, the session management node many generate a query to a profile server. The profile server may identify a second user based on the search criteria provided by the first user. Additionally, the profile server may provide an identifier of the second user to the session management node. Further, the session management node may initiate anonymous communication between the first user and the second user.

主权项

1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, cause a computing device to perform a method of initiating anonymous communication between a first user device and a second user device, the method comprising:
transmitting, from the first user device, a call request to be connected to another user device matching a first set of criteria provided by the first user device, wherein the first set of criteria comprise characteristics of a vehicle associated with the second user device; receiving, in the first user device, a message indicating a plurality of anonymous identifiers comprising hidden identities of a plurality of user devices other than the first user device, the plurality of user devices selected based on the plurality of user devices matching the first set of criteria; receiving a user selection of the second user device from among the plurality of user devices by receiving a selection of one of the plurality of anonymous identifiers corresponding to the second user device; and transferring, from the first user device, an anonymous communication request for an anonymous communication session with the second user device wherein the anonymous communication request indicates the one of the plurality of anonymous identifiers corresponding to the second user device and a request of the first user device for information from the second user device comprising a description of a question for the information.
