Do you want to know how much other people paid for a car, when you're shopping for one, or any other big ticket item? Would you be ok with nobody posting MSRPs

Do you want to know how much other people paid for a car, when you're shopping for one, or any other big ticket item?
Would you be ok with nobody posting MSRPs anywhere?
- mc32 5y agoAnonymous? Sure. Do I need to know what Jane Blow paid? No.
- perl4ever 5y agoWhat does that mean? The average is enough and you would actively avoid information about the distribution if you could get it?
- mc32 5y agoNo they can give me the distribution, I just don’t need to know what Jane Blow paid. So I don’t need to know what Jane, or my boss or whomever paid for their F-150 and none of them need to know what I paid. But I don’t mind knowing the distribution so long as none of the data points can be tied to any particular person.
- perl4ever 5y ago>so long as none of the data points can be tied to any particular person Does that mean you are against salaries being published beside names, or you feel any possibility of identifying people should prevent a dataset being released?
