System and method for broadcasting VoIP messages
The invention relates to a system and method for broadcasting VoIP messages. In one respect, embodiments of the invention utilize random delays to disguise the automated nature of the messaging source. In another respect, embodiments of the invention are configured to persist when error messages are encountered.
1 . A method for broadcasting Voice Over IP (VoIP) messages, comprising:
connecting from a source to a first destination;
pausing for a first random duration; and
sending a first VoIP message from the source to the first destination.
2 . The method of claim 1 , the connecting from the source to the first destination including communicating with a SIP server.
3 . The method of claim 1 , the sending a first VoIP message including sending a text message.
4 . The method of claim 1 , the sending the first VoIP message occurring prior to the pausing for the first random duration.
5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
pausing for a second random duration after sending the first VoIP message; and
disconnecting the source from the first destination.
6 . The method of claim 5 , further comprising:
pausing for a third random duration after disconnecting the source from the first destination;
connecting from the source to the first destination; and
sending a second VoIP message from the source to the first destination.
7 . The method of claim 5 , further comprising:
pausing for a third random duration after disconnecting the source from the first destination;
connecting from the source to a second destination; and
sending the first VoIP message from the source to the second destination.
8 . A method for controlling a transmission of a Voice Over IP (VoIP) message by a source, comprising:
detecting a connection between the source and a first destination;
setting a first delay to a first duration; and
at the expiration of the first delay, transmitting a first VoIP message intended for the first destination from the source.
9 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
setting a second delay to a second duration; and
at the expiration of the second delay, disconnecting the source from the first destination.
10 . The method of claim 9 , further comprising:
setting a third delay to a third duration;
at the expiration of the third delay, connecting the source to a second destination; and
sending the first VoIP message to the second destination.
11 . The method of claim 9 , further comprising:
setting a third delay to a third duration;
at the expiration of the third delay, connecting the source to a first destination; and
sending a second VoIP message to the first destination.
12 . A method for broadcasting Voice Over IP (VoIP) messages, comprising:
means for connecting from a source to a first destination;
pausing for a first random duration; and
sending a first VoIP message from the source to the first destination.
13 . A machine-readable medium having instructions stored thereon for execution by a processor to perform a method comprising:
connecting from a source to a first destination;
pausing for a first random duration; and
sending a first VoIP message from the source to the first destination.
14 . A machine-readable medium having instructions stored thereon for execution by a processor to perform a method comprising:
detecting a connection between the source and a first destination;
setting a first delay to a first duration; and
at the expiration of the first delay, transmitting a first VoIP message intended for the first destination from the source.
15 . A system for broadcasting Voice Over IP (VoIP) messages, comprising:
a source terminal;
an interface to a SIP server coupled to the source terminal; and
an interface to a first destination terminal, the interface to the destination terminal coupled to the SIP server, the source terminal configured to detect a connection between the source and a destination, the source terminal further configured to set a first delay to a first duration, the source terminal further configured to transmit a first VoIP message to the destination after the expiration of the first delay.
16 . The system of claim 15 further comprising:
a gateway coupled to the SIP server;
a Public-Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) coupled to the gateway; and
a second destination terminal coupled to the PSTN.
