Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for parental controls based on the location of a wireless computing device. Wireless access points may be located in different locations, e.g., in different rooms of a home. The location of the wireless computing device may be determined based on comparing measured signal strengths to baseline signal strengths associated with the location. Information related to an access level associated with the location may be determined. The access level may, for example, permit access to content in a first location, but prevent access to the content in a second location. Content may be provided to the wireless computing device based on the access level associated with the location.
