Microsoft aims to impart manners on your mobile device by creating device manners policy (DMP), and the company is pretty intent on patenting it as well.

Such policy may be used to communicate to various mobile and other devices the “manners” with which compliance is expected or due. Similar to some of the social manners honored among public, such as with “no smoking” or “employees only” zones, “no swimming” or “no flash

photography” areas, and scenarios for “please wash your hands” or “no talking out loud”, devices may recognize and comply with analogous “device manners” policy.

What do you invent out of that effort? Is it worthwhile or a waste of everyone’s date?
