SELF-DISCLOSED IDENTITY ON A NETWORK

Abstract

Techniques described herein include techniques for communicating information about the social behavior of users and transactions performed by users on a computer network. In one example, this disclosure describes a method that includes receiving information about identity disclosure activities performed by each of a plurality of users on the network; determining that the information about identity disclosure activities includes information consistent with a prior identity disclosure activity performed by a first user having a first user status on the network; increasing the first user status; determining that the information about identity disclosure activities includes information that is not consistent with a prior identity disclosure activity performed by a second user having a second user status on the network; and decreasing the second user status.
