Abstract
Various aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and machine-readable media for geographically local license sharing. The method includes transmitting, from a media server, a shared secret to a licensed client, the licensed client broadcasting a wireless signal comprising a unique identifier associated with the licensed client. The method also includes receiving, at the media server, an access token and the unique identifier of the licensed client from an unlicensed client, the access token and the unique identifier received by the unlicensed client from the licensed client based on a proximity of the unlicensed client to the licensed client. The method also includes validating, by the media server, the access token based on the unique identifier and the shared secret with the licensed client. The method also includes enabling the unlicensed client to access media content of the media server upon validation of the access token.
