Query: Your browsing behavior for a Big Mac: Economics of Personal Information
  Online   Most online services (Google, Facebook etc.) operate by providing a service
to users for free, and in return they collect and monetize personal information
(PI) of the users. This operational model is inherently economic, as the "good"
being traded and monetized is PI. This model is coming under increased scrutiny
as online services are moving to capture more PI of users, raising serious
privacy concerns. However, little is known on how users valuate different types
of PI while being online, as well as the perceptions of users with regards to
exploitation of their PI by online service providers.
  In this paper, we study how users valuate different types of PI while being
online, while capturing the context by relying on Experience Sampling. We were
able to extract the monetary value that 168 participants put on different
pieces of PI. We find that users value their PI related to their offline
identities more (3 times) than their browsing behavior. Users also value
information pertaining to financial transactions and social network
interactions more than activities like search and shopping. We also found that
while users are overwhelmingly in favor of exchanging their PI in return for
improved online services, they are uncomfortable if these same providers
monetize their PI.
