[20:09:14] <Ironholds>	 who fancies exploring a hypothetical research ethics question?
[20:30:14] <apergos>	 uh
[20:30:24] <apergos>	 if you don't care if the exploration migh tlead to antartica or something
[20:30:25] <apergos>	 sure
[20:33:04] <Ironholds>	 apergos, hehe
[20:33:18] <Ironholds>	 so, I'm surveying a population, and giving them informed consent around the survey
[20:33:27] <Ironholds>	 I've distinctly got some referer/geo data about them from their browsing
[20:33:51] <Ironholds>	 is it okay to just say something like "The information I will be gathering is very simple data about users' age, education and identity. It will be combined with basic geographic and browsing information."? Should I be letting them know the source of the rest of it?
[20:40:33] <apergos>	 you say it's combined with data from browsing
[20:40:41] <apergos>	 is there any other data unaccounted for?
[20:41:20] <apergos>	 do you mean you need to say browsing which websites?
[20:41:42] <apergos>	 Ironholds: 
[20:42:48] <Ironholds>	 apergos, indeed!
[20:42:51] <Ironholds>	 and naw, no other data
[20:42:59] <Ironholds>	 like it's literally referrer-country-[survey info]
[20:43:18] <apergos>	 so... which websites is it from then?
[20:43:29] <Ironholds>	 mine!
[20:43:33] <apergos>	 ah!
[20:43:40] <apergos>	 well I think you ought to disclose that then yes
[20:43:48] <apergos>	 :-D
[20:44:45] <Ironholds>	 darnit :P
[20:44:52] <apergos>	 to be fair if you had said en.wikisource or whatever I would have said to disclose that but you could have been vaguer ("Wikimedia properties")
[20:45:10] <Ironholds>	 yeah, totally
