Zusammenfassung:	A remotely accessible server receives a request from a requesting device to release a product, the request including at least a product identifier and a geo-location. The server retrieves a product record associated with the product identifier from a database and then retrieves an expected geo-location from the product record. If the received geo-location substantially matches the expected geo-location of the product, the server updates the product record to mark the product as released and transmits a release instruction to the requesting device. If the received geo-location does not substantially match the expected geo-location of the product, the server updates the product record to mark the product as blocked and transmits a block instruction to the requesting device.
