Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide systems and methods for providing collaborative control by multiple electronic devices. Collaborative control may include providing, by a first device that is outputting content, such as audio content, an invitation to a second device to control the content that is being output by the first device. The content may be being output by the first device directly, or via a third device, such as a media output device. The media output device may be a speaker, a television, or other media output device. The second device may be provided with the ability to control the output of the first device while in proximity to the first device and/or the media output device. Control commands from the second device for controlling the output of the first device may be provided to the first device over a network.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology include receiving, by a first device, a voucher data item, from a second device that is participating in a group communication session with at least a third device and providing, by the first device, the voucher data item to at least the third device to verify that the first device is vouched for by the second device for participation in the group communication session. The voucher data item may include participant information associated with participation of the second device in the group communication session. The voucher data item may also be signed with a key associated with the second device.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology provide for secure, privacy-preserving access to electronic conferencing. In one or more implementations, participant devices in a conferencing session may be provided with the ability to expel one or more other participant devices from the conferencing session, even when the participant device(s) are not hosts or cohosts of the conferencing session. A participant device may be expellable by another participant device based on a connection mechanism by which the participant device is connected to the conferencing session, and/or based on an amount of time since the participant device joined the conferencing session.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology provide for secure, privacy-preserving access to electronic conferencing. In one or more implementations, a device may obtain a link that corresponds to a call with a second device, encrypt a request to join the call using a key obtained using the link, and send the encrypted request to a server for delivery to the second device. The link may also include information used to identify an alias for an account associated with the second device. The device may send the encrypted request to the server with the alias. The device may receive an encrypted response to the request from the server, obtain an identifier of the call from the encrypted response, and then receive an invitation to join the call associated with the identifier.

Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide systems and methods for providing nearby device invitations for electronic devices. Nearby device invitations from a first device can include encrypted invitations configured for trusted contacts, unencrypted invitations provided in response to a user request to invite all nearby devices, and/or a scannable code. The encrypted invitations and/or the unencrypted invitations can be broadcast using a short-range wireless communications protocol that limits the distance, from the broadcasting device, at which the invitations can be received. After providing the nearby device invitation in one or more of these ways, a resulting collaborative session between the first device and a second device can be managed via a server over a network.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology provide for secure, privacy-preserving access to electronic conferencing. In one or more implementations, an electronic device associated with an account can generate links, such as links for joining an electronic conferencing session. In some use cases, multiple electronic devices can be associated with the same account. Aspects of the subject technology provide for synchronization of links generated by multiple electronic devices associated with the same account.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology provide for secure, privacy-preserving access to electronic conferencing. In one or more implementations, an electronic device may receive a request to join a call with a second device, the request including components of a uniform resource locator (URL). The electronic device may assemble the URL using the components, and join the call using the assembled URL.
