Abstract
The present invention is a method and system for managing privacy policies in ad-hoc networks by way of spatial and temporal landmarks. A privacy policy is associated with a geographic or temporal landmark, which is associated with a domain. An information system selects an appropriate privacy policy for a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) associated with a landmark.
