:A: The goal of the Consumerium project, in a nutshell, is to increase power of the [[consumer]] in [[market economy]]. This goal is achieved by developing an information gathering, storage and transporting infrastructure that delievers '''all available information''' to support consumer decisions - with '''just a touch of a button''', and gives to the consumer the ability to give [[feedback]], even to the '''other side of the world''' - with just a few touches of buttons. All this must be offered to the consumer free of charge. Ideally it would invoke criteria from trusted mediators, e.g. [http://act.greenpeace.org/1014917000/1014941204/1024270541/1024347962/index_html#1024421552 Non-Governmental Organizations, e.g. Greenpeace, where a suggestion of how to do this was debated extensively in June of 2002]. | :A: The goal of the Consumerium project, in a nutshell, is to increase power of the [[consumer]] in [[market economy]].
