An anonymous location wireless network service for use in a wireless
network that tracks the location and identity of network users, such as
networks complying with enhanced 911 standards. The service provides
content providers with the location of network users without revealing
their identities. The service includes a wireless network having a proxy
server, a network communication link to a plurality of web sites, and a
wireless communication link to a plurality of handheld devices. The proxy
server blocks identity by reading the location and identity information
of network devices, generating dummy identifications, relating the dummy
identifications to the identity information, storing the relationships in
a memory storage, and forwarding the location information and dummy
identifications to the global computer network. Upon receiving return
messages from the global computer network, the proxy server reads the
dummy identifications, looks up the related identity information in the
memory storage, and forwards the data to the appropriate network devices.
