Abstract
The market for consumer information is already a lively market, where consumer information and consumer profile data are often among the most valuable assets owned by online retailers. The value of such commodity derives from the ability of firms to identify consumers and charge them personalized prices flj. We argue that if consumers' identity and personal information is such a valuable asset, should not consumers benefit from their asset as well? In this paper, we propose a negotiation process between an online consumer agent and an online seller. The online consumer agent acts on behalf of consumers to maximize their social welfare. In our model, the agent derives a quantified privacy risk for each private data and uses it to determine a cost premium value to make the bargaining process manageable. We also provide a computational example to evaluate the model.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
