1. Introduction

    To have two classes of http users, authenticated with some user information
    credentials other than IP address of machine used and location information and others 
    anonymous or unauthenticated without any user information and only IP address of machine 
    used and location information.

2. Background
     RIght now as a WWW publisher i cannot program my website to say that only authenticated
     users can view my website and anonymous users with just IP address and location information
     should not be able to view my website

3. General Information of the service
        
    Right now to hide sensitive or subscription based information i have to implement username
    password restrictions in the website code i am publishing.I should be able to say that
    only a HTTP client request that has in addition to location and IP address some User information
    should be served information from my website. This user information can be queried using a
    service similar to whois domainname.com to find out what is publicly available about the
    browser of information.Right now a user from say Newyork can login to my website in Utah Create
    fake user name and passwords and access information for free or for a usage fee. If i dont have
    username password subscription services and all my information is available for free, then the
    only guaranteed information i have about the user is IP address and location information.
