Abstract
The most common method for supporting consent in computer applications is a "user agreement." When you have installed new software on your computer, or signed up for an Internet service, you have undoubtedly seen an interface screen that presents a User Agreement or Terms of Service. In order to continue, you have had to click on an "I Agree" button or an equivalent label. These interface screens are commonly called "click-through agreements" because the users must click through the screen to get to the software or service being offered [2]. (An alternative label is "click-wrap agreement,” in parallel to more traditional "shrink-wrap" agreements attached to software packaging.) These agreement screens are an attempt to provide the electronic equivalent of a signed user agreement or service contract [3]. By clicking on the "Agree" button, the user is confirming their understanding of the agreement and indicating consent to any terms or conditions specified in the accompanying text.

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
