Original Abstract Submitted
This disclosure describes techniques for enabling selective connections between user devices and trusted network devices. An example method includes receiving a beacon from a network device. The beacon includes a trust level of the network device. The method further includes determining that the trust level of the network device satisfies a predetermined trust criterion. Based on determining that the trust level of the network device satisfies the predetermined trust criterion, the method includes transmitting a connection request to the network device. Further, user data is received from the network device.
