Abstract

A system and method for managing communication rules on a mobile device are provided. In one embodiment, the communication rules are enforced by the mobile device without assistance from outside components. The communication rules a mobile device needs to enforce may be controlled by a component that is apart from the mobile device. The communication rules may take into account the application that requested the communication and the mobile device's present physical surroundings.
