[[Consumerium]] is a not-for-profit project to focus that power.  We are collaborating under the [[GFDL]] [[licences|license]], to design a [[healthy buying infrastructure]].  We are identifying [[hardware requirements]] for storage, transport and display of varying levels of [[features|product information]] to [[consumer]]s at the [[point of purchase]].  We hope to be part of an evolving [[healthy signal infrastructure]] that all [[essential projects]] can participate in.  ''Also see the '''[[Consumerium:FAQ]]''' about the project itself.  Here is a summary of '''[[Consumerium Services]]''' of interest to the end user:''

:Advice (the [[Consumerium buying signal]]) will probably be seen by the [[end user]] as a [[red light|red]]/[[yellow light|yellow]]/[[green light]] traffic-type signal, or as a [[score]] easily translated into a [[price premium]], or as a note in [[Simple English]] about issues with, or merits of, the product.  All rely on [[Signal Wiki]] comments compiled by software using a [[wikitext standard]].  [[Semantic link]] standards may be required also.  A deeper [[Research Wiki]] backs the signal and permits arbitrary [[faction]] debate, development of [[individual buying criteria|individual]] and [[institutional buying criteria]].

:Realtime release of this advice (in whatever form) to a [[worn device]] is keyed to [[bar code]]s.  It may rely on frequently updated data embedded in [[worn device]]s, and/or dynamic retrieval via [[short-range wireless]] to the [[retail shelf]].  Where possible, reasons for making buying decisions, or refusing a certain product, will go as [[feedback]] to the [[producer]]s via the [[Research Wiki]].  This will affect [[institutional buying criteria]] at[[Consumerium Service access|all points in the supply chain]], enhance the consumer experience by providing a feeling of power, advance improved product development and keep this planet as hospitable as possible for human and other natural life.
