METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING SHAPES FOR DEVICES BASED ON PRIVACY POLICY
First Claim
1. A method comprising facilitating a processing of and/or processing (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal, the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal based, at least in part, on the following:
- at least one determination of at least one interaction mode of at least one application executing on at least one device, wherein the at least one device supports shifting from among a plurality of physical form factors;
at least one determination of at least one selected physical form factor from among the plurality of physical form factors based, at least in part, on the at least one interaction mode, at least one user privacy policy, or a combination thereof; and
a shape shifting of the at least one device to the at least one selected physical form factor.

Abstract
An approach is provided for determining at least one interaction mode of at least one application executing on at least one device, wherein the at least one device supports shifting from among a plurality of physical form factors. The approach also involves determining at least one selected physical form factor from among the plurality of physical form factors based, at least in part, on the at least one interaction mode, at least one user privacy policy, or a combination thereof. The approach further involves causing, at least in part, a shape shifting of the at least one device to the at least one selected physical form factor.

11. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following, determine at least one interaction mode of at least one application executing on at least one device, wherein the at least one device supports shifting from among a plurality of physical form factors; determine at least one selected physical form factor from among the plurality of physical form factors based, at least in part, on the at least one interaction mode, at least one user privacy policy, or a combination thereof; and cause, at least in part, a shape shifting of the at least one device to the at least one selected physical form factor. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
