Aspects of the subject technology include obtaining, by a first device associated with a first user account, one or more item-specific public keys of one or more devices associated with a second user account and generating a data structure representing the one or more devices associated with the second user account based on the one or more item-specific public keys. Aspects may also include providing an identifier of the data structure to a server for association with the item and generating an invitation for the second user account to access the item. Aspects may further include providing the invitation to a second device of the one or more devices associated with the second user account to provide the second device with access to the item via the server based on at least a portion of the data structure and a respective item-specific public key of the second device.

Proving membership using cryptographic identities

In some embodiments, a computer system displays a user interface element corresponding to content shared with the computer system for interacting with the shared content in the three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, a computer system displays one or more virtual control elements in a three-dimensional environment that are selectable to cause one or more corresponding operations involving a physical device to be performed.

Methods for sharing content and interacting with physical devices in a three-dimensional environment

This application relates to techniques for anonymously establishing a secure communication session with a wireless client. A described method, performed by an anonymous wireless host, includes advertising a service implemented by the anonymous wireless host as available over a wireless network, receiving an invitation to establish the secure communication session with the wireless client, transmitting an acceptance of the invitation to the wireless client, and establishing the secure communication session over a communication channel. The invitation is received from the wireless client and the acceptance is transmitted to the wireless client via a broadcast address or a multicast address associated with the wireless network. The secure communication session is used to exchange encrypted data between the service and the wireless client.

Protocol for establishing a secure communications session with an anonymous host over a wireless network

Improved techniques for interacting with media content so as to provide a unified experience of media content across different client devices in a client-server environment are disclosed. Media content may be displayed on first display of a first client device. Using a server computer, a status of the media content may be communicated from the first client device to a second client device. The media content may be displayed on a second display of the second client device, in accordance with the status of the media content from the first client device.

Unified playback position

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for identifying and processing a common geometric primitive associated with multiple geometric primitives. In some embodiments, a first geometric primitive including a first set of end points and a second geometric primitive including a second set of end points are obtained. A common point that is shared by the first geometric primitive and the second geometric primitive is determined based on at least some of the first and second sets of end points. The common geometric primitive is generated based on at least the common point. The common geometric primitive is associated with the first geometric primitive and the second geometric primitive so that a change to the common geometric primitive is applied to the first geometric primitive and the second geometric primitive.
