Copyleft, totally a thing to do with all said to the right of this graphic

Welcome, newcomers to our set of 1,172 Consumerium Effort development wiki articles crafted in the spirit of our philosophy where fairtrade, political consumerism, copyleft, free software, moral purchasing, consumer activism and shareholder activism are close to the core.

Our intent is to provide services for which we need infrastructure built with technologies.
Welcom to Trollböle, west bank of the Former Aral Sea Shores. No, seriously keeping all production servers in Finland to make jurisdiction certain. Finnish law is very rational and I can read it.

Consumerium itself is a not-for-profit effort to enable display of product information to consumers and feedback to the producers to enhance the consumer experience and to keep this planet as hospitable as possible.

We are collaborating under the GFDL license, to design a healthy buying infrastructure. We are identifying hardware requirements for storage, transport and display of varying levels of product information to consumers and feedback to producers at the point of purchase to enhance the consumer experience, advance product development and to keep this planet as hospitable as possible.


Timeline of Consumerium is work eternally in progress. Currently it is year 2017.

Ethical consumerism is a type of consumer activism that is based on the concept of dollar voting. It is practiced through 'positive buying' in that ethical products are favoured, or 'moral boycott', that is negative purchasing and company-based purchasing.”
