Abstract
For current location-based telecommunication, an instruction is sent from a caller communication device to initiate a telecommunication with a set of destination communication devices. The instruction includes identifying information for a reference device but does not include any identifying information for the set of destination communication devices. Telecommunication data is received at the caller communication device from a destination communication device in the set of destination communication devices, where a server has established a communication channel between the caller communication device and the destination communication device based on a geolocation proximity of the destination communication devices relative to the reference device.
