Personal data underlie targeted advertising, which draws billions of dollars into ad-supported markets. Personal data are useful for other purposes as well. Firms in digital markets rely on personal data to deliver their core products and services––we refer to these collectively as “web services”1––to hone and improve them, and to recommend related products and services. These data facilitate innovation, allowing yet more services and “smart” products with increasingly personalized functionalities. Personal data can allow governments to deliver better public services, such as transportation systems, or can help researchers better understand how humans interact with algorithms and which policies might best serve society. And data can also facilitate competition, by improving quality and providing insight into consumer conduct that encourages entry. In these various ways, the massive quantity of personal data currently collected undoubtedly contributes to consumer welfare. But there also are downsides to the collection and use of personal data on such a grand scale. “Surveillance capitalism,” as Professor Shoshana Zuboff has termed it, has blurred the line between the personal and the public, and has commodified our habits, interests, and beliefs in ways that can feel distasteful and invasive. Massive data collection also has made information about us more accessible to government and commercial actors who often face little to no accountability for its misuse. date: 2023-10 date_type: published publisher: Yale Journal on Regulation official_url: http://tse-fr.eu/pub/128616 faculty: tse divisions: tse language: en has_fulltext: FALSE doi: ISSN: 2376-5925 view_date_year: 2023 full_text_status: none publication: Yale Journal on Regulation volume: vol. 40 number: n° 3 place_of_pub: New Haven pagerange: 1056-1120 refereed: TRUE issn: 0741-9457 oai_identifier: oai:tse-fr.eu:128616 harvester_local_overwrite: number harvester_local_overwrite: volume harvester_local_overwrite: issn harvester_local_overwrite: pending harvester_local_overwrite: creators_idrefppn harvester_local_overwrite: creators_halaffid harvester_local_overwrite: publisher harvester_local_overwrite: place_of_pub harvester_local_overwrite: abstract harvester_local_overwrite: creators_affiliation harvester_local_overwrite: creators_id harvester_local_overwrite: id_number harvester_local_overwrite: hal_id harvester_local_overwrite: hal_version harvester_local_overwrite: hal_url harvester_local_overwrite: hal_passwd oai_lastmod: 2024-07-19T07:50:48Z oai_set: tse site: ut1 hal_id: hal-04810695 hal_passwd: &277yr hal_version: 1 hal_url: https://hal.science/hal-04810695 citation: Crémer, Jacques , Bergemann, Dirk , Dinielli, David, Groh, Carl-Christian, Heidhues, Paul, Schäfer, Maximilian, Scott Morton, Fiona, Seim, Katja and Sullivan, Michael (2023) Market Design for Personal Data.
