To be considered '''fair''', a [[transaction|transactions]] must be seen to be conducted free of any [[coercion]] or [[exploitation]], [[institutional]] or otherwise. [[w:Fair trade|fair trade]] is cross-border trade which satisfies this definition - to ''someone''s satisfaction.

| The concept of '''fair''' is variously defined but seems always to depend on what participants and observers individually feel is [[safe]] and [[done]]. There is a range of [[audit]] procedures one might apply to determine what is "[[not fair]]". [[Faction]]s make it impossible to settle on one strict and global definition, so this is a '''''[[contested term]] - see [[glossary]] for other such contested terms.'''''

| ''''Fairness''' and an objective definition for it is out of scope of Consumerium, except insofar as our understanding of it is embodied in our choices about [[infrastructure]] (not everyone has access to all tools), [[privacy]] (especially [[identifying people]]), and especially in the [[glossary]] where we make important decisions about our [[ignorance]].
