Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for inferred user identity in content distribution. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for inferred user identity in content distribution includes retrieving a set of data of a particular classification from a data store of a computing device of an unidentified user requesting access to content in a content distribution system. The method further includes comparing the set of data of the particular classification to known patterns of data of the particular classification corresponding to different known users. The method yet further includes inferring an identity of the unidentified user based upon at least a partial matching of the compared set of data of the particular classification and known patterns of data of the particular classification. Finally, the method includes managing user interactions of the unidentified user based upon the inferred identity.
