Abstract: Novel tools and techniques might provide for implementing application, service, and/or content access control. Based at least in part on a consumer's choice of applications, services, content, and/or content providers—particular in exchange for a subsidy on content and/or network access fees provided to the consumer by chosen content providers—, a computing system may determine whether access to applications, services, and/or content not associated with the chosen content providers (“other content”) should be allowed or restricted. If restricted, the computing system might utilize various network access techniques and/or technologies to block the consumer's access to the other content, to allow access to the other content on a charge per access basis, or to allow access to the other content at reduced network access speeds. In some embodiments, an access provider (e.g., an Internet service provider, etc.) might perform both determination and implementation of content access and restriction.

Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for lawfully intercepting communications. In some embodiments, a lawful intercept application might be provided on a cloud computing system. The lawful intercept application might include an application programming interface (“API”) to exchange data with a plurality of different communication building blocks of different types. Communication intercept data associated with a particular communication between a lawful intercept subject and other parties may be received with the lawful intercept application. The communication intercept data may then be provided from a delivery function of the lawful intercept application to a collection function. In some cases, the collection function might be part of the lawful intercept application, might be located at a government facility separate from the cloud computing system, or might be two collection functions, one of which is part of the lawful intercept application and the other of which is located at the government facility.

Abstract: Novel tools and techniques might provide for implementing extension of customer local area networks (“LANs”) and/or implementing isolated service overlays over a network. In some embodiments, a network service point that is located external to a demarcation point at each of a plurality of customer premises might establish a connection between a service provider network and a customer LAN, which has already been established within a customer premises. The system subsequently extends the customer LAN, via this connection, to span between the network service point and the customer premises. Alternatively, or additionally, the system might establish two or more isolated service overlays across the customer LAN between the network service point and the customer premises, each of the two or more isolated service overlays having network traffic that is isolated from network traffic transmitted along another of the two or more isolated service overlays.
