Are we upfront with the consumers of our services? When this comes to web data, notice how worldcat.org informs (at least in 2014) their service’s consumers. At the point of login it is simple, clear and does not use a pop-up. Such a notice allows users to make informed choices about the use of a specific service… assuming they are literate in the language of the notice, understand the laws of that country, and don’t also have undue pressure to use the service anyway regardless of consqences.
