Abstract
One example method of limiting transmission of data involves generating an Internet datagram that includes digital content and an Internet protocol (IP) header. It is determined whether the digital content comprises localized data that may be transmitted to other devices within a network boundary. If the digital content comprises localized data, a time to live (TTL) parameter of the IP header of the Internet datagram is set to a value that represents a number of times the digital content may be transmitted within the network boundary, with the value being less than or equal to five. After the TTL parameter is set to a value less than or equal to five, the Internet datagram is transmitted. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
