Abstract

A method of accessing electronic content received by a mobile device includes: determining a current location of the mobile device; comparing the current location with a zone within which an instance of electronic content may be accessed; when the result of the comparison indicates that the mobile device is located within the zone, accessing by the mobile device the instance of electronic content and providing at least part of the instance of electronic content for display on the mobile device; determining a new current location of the mobile device while the instance of electronic content is being accessed; and checking that the new current location of the mobile device is with the zone. If the mobile device is no longer within the zone, the mobile device terminates the access to the instance of electronic content.
