UTILIZING A TRUSTED WATCHER DEVICE TO REPORT LOCATION STATUS INFORMATION

A method includes detecting a first computing device location transition from a first geographic region to a second geographic region and upon the detecting of the transition, selecting a trusted watcher computing device based on a favorable proximity to the first computing device and a trust protocol. The method further includes establishing a location determination approach of the first computing device that utilizes a location determining resource of the trusted watcher computing device. The method further includes initiating generation of the location synchronization information of the first computing device using the location determination approach and requesting that the trusted watcher computing device communicate the location synchronization information to a second computing device.
