Much of what we want to know about others is not directly perceivable — are you a nice person? did you really like the cake I baked? would you be a good employee, spouse, president? We rely instead on signals, which are perceivable features or actions that indicate the presence of those hidden qualities. Yet not all signals are reliable. It is beneficial for the con-man to seem nice, for the guest to seem to like the burnt cake, for the unsuitable suitor to seem as attractive as possible. While these deceptions benefit the deceiver, they may be quite costly for the recipient. What keeps signals honest — and why are some signals more reliable than others?

The digital revolution has empowered consumers and scrambled business models across a wide range of media and communications sectors, yet the consumer gains are under constant pressure from network operators and copyright holders, who seek to reassert control over consumers and the Internet. On the other side, some public interest advocates are alarmed by the dramatic growth of online advertising with its threat to privacy and its tendency toward concentration in the hands of a small number of providers. A clear understanding of how the consumers' gains were made and what the threats are is crucial to defining the public and consumer interest in the 21st century.
