A computer system allows two devices operated by two users from a plurality of trusted users to establish a direct peer to peer limited range wireless connection based on a social network connection between the users. The first client device associated with a first user receives a list of the plurality of trusted users from the computer system. The first client device receives a limited range signal broadcast by a second client device. The first client device determines that the second client device is associated with a second user from the plurality of trusted users based on the list and the limited range signal. Responsive to determining that the second client device is associated with the second user from the plurality of trusted users, the first client device establishes a direct peer to peer wireless connection. The first client device transmits content to the second client device via the peer to peer wireless connection.
