Gerald L. Jenkins - Highland Park IL, US

International Classification:

G06Q 30/00

US Classification:

705 26, 705 1, 705 27

Abstract:

A method of engaging in transactional activities on the Internet without substantial human direction or risk of liability after establishing an established purpose that benefits an initiator being capable of execution by the intelligent automated agent includes several steps. One of the steps is providing an intelligent automated agent having at least one ability to engage in transactional activities on the Internet that can benefit the initiator. Another step is providing, via the automated intelligent agent's functionality, limited flexibility company means for limiting liability having one or more corporate purposes including at least the established purpose that can benefit the initiator, the corporate purpose limiting the activities the limited flexibility company means may engage in and providing a limit to liability attaching to the engaging of activities within said one or more corporate purposes, the limited flexibility company means requiring capitalization and having the capability of owning an intelligent automated agent. Yet another step is vesting ownership of the intelligent automated agent in the limited flexibility company means. A further step is transacting business with the intelligent automated agent according to the intelligent automated agent's ability to execute the established purpose that can benefit the initiator.

Abstract:

A method of enabling a server to contact an unknown Internet account holder can begin with the server receiving a request for a resource. The server then determines whether the request for the resource warrants sending a notice, and if so, identifies a notice destination to which the notice is to be sent. The server then generates a notice comprising an apparent IP address, a time the server received the request, and a communication; and sends the notice to the notice destination via a standardized communications pathway. An ISP can receive a notice from the server via the standardized communication pathway, and based thereon can identify the account holder based the requesting IP and optionally the request time. The ISP can then send the account holder the communication by an arranged manner despite the server not having known the identity of the account holder.
