Everybody will be able to see what everybody voted but not know which votes were cast by whom. It would enrich the Consumium social media game experience to be able to share sub-sets of your votes with your friends or even publish some sets of your votes for all to see. Forming teams and factions that draw and aggregate from team/faction members' votes sub-sets seems a likely feature.

== The trick is in the counting ==
So by closed and tuneable counting we mean that you can ( if you wish to ) have a personalized vote counting result because no consensus outcome is required.
The most simple way to achieve a vote counting result that is customized is to use '''automatic amplification''', a one-check-box-solution, which is to say that the people who voted similar to you get more voting power ( say +30% ) ( amplification ) and those who voted conflicting with your votes get less ( dampening ) ( say -30% )
With the '''open voting, tuneable counting''' we are making sure that we have the highest resiliency to information warfare . Every time a skewing effort ( usually by paid trolls ) is detected proper counter measures ( parametrization of the vote counting ) can be formulated and distributed. The loss in this set-up is exposure to consumption pattern profiling for those who vote ( then again this happens in twitter and facebook too if you talk / like about your consumption habits ).
As in all highly-political wikis we expect a [[paid trolls vs. unpaid trolls]] situation. We are also optimist and hope that a healthy dynamic equilibrium(s) will form. :D :D
==What things can you vote on?==
Everybody may vote on any thing (it should be somehow related to production, trading or shopping),  or  but only the following will be tallied [[:Category:Companies|Companies]], [[:Category:Brands|Brands]], [[:Category:Products|Products]], [[:Category:Product groups|Product groups]], [[:Category:Countries]] and [[:Cateogry:Areas|Areas]]. If Votes overlap or conflict, the first or last vote encountered will be counted. This is yet to be decided.
