METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND MEDIA FOR PRESENTING CONTENT BASED ON A GENERIC RATING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18244483 titled 'METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND MEDIA FOR PRESENTING CONTENT BASED ON A GENERIC RATING

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods, systems, and media for presenting content based on a generic rating. It involves converting country-specific content ratings to generic ratings and blocking search results based on user-selected content rating restrictions. The modified search results are then presented to the user. When the user selects content, its country-specific rating is converted to a generic rating and checked against the user's content rating restriction. If it is not blocked, the selected content is presented.

  • The patent application presents a method for presenting content based on a generic rating.
  • It involves converting country-specific content ratings to generic ratings.
  • The method allows for blocking search results based on user-selected content rating restrictions.
  • Modified search results are presented to the user after removing blocked search results.
  • The method also converts the country-specific content rating of selected content to a generic rating.
  • It checks if the selected content is blocked based on the generic rating and user's content rating restriction.
  • If not blocked, the selected content is presented to the user.

Potential Applications

This technology can have various applications, including:

  • Content filtering and censorship in search engines and online platforms.
  • Customized content presentation based on user preferences and restrictions.
  • Compliance with content rating regulations across different countries.
  • Enhancing user experience by filtering out unwanted or inappropriate content.

Problems Solved

The technology addresses several problems, such as:

  • Ensuring compliance with content rating regulations in different countries.
  • Providing users with control over the type of content they can access.
  • Filtering out inappropriate or unwanted content from search results.
  • Simplifying the process of converting and comparing content ratings across different rating systems.

Benefits

The technology offers several benefits, including:

  • Improved content filtering and censorship capabilities.
  • Enhanced user control and customization of content presentation.
  • Simplified conversion and comparison of content ratings.
  • Compliance with content rating regulations in different countries.
  • Enhanced user experience by filtering out unwanted or inappropriate content.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and media for presenting content based on a generic rating are provided. In some implementations, the method comprises: receiving search results; determining country-specific content ratings associated with the search results; converting the country-specific content ratings to generic content ratings associated with the search results; determining that at least one search result is to be blocked based on the generic content ratings and a user-selected generic content rating restriction; in response to determining that a search result is to be blocked, removing the search result from the search results to create modified search results; causing the modified search results to be presented; receiving a selection of content from the presented search results; determining a country-specific content rating associated with the selected content; converting the country-specific content rating to a generic content rating; determining that the selected content is not to be blocked based on the generic content rating and the user-selected generic content rating restriction; and causing the selected content to be presented.
