Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q1 i? Increases in privacy can allow datasets to be shared more widely, because as internal utility is decreased, datasets meet stricter disclosure and use standards. → pets-sharing-1

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2
Theoretical argument in the PETs and Trust section: the article argues that privacy-preserving approaches can be politically or legally feasible where an in-the-clear record linkage may not be, so PET limitations expand the value of data. No empirical evidence is offered for this claim.
"Paradoxically, increases in privacy can allow datasets to be shared more widely: as internal utility is decreased, datasets meet stricter disclosure and use standards."

- PETs trade utility for privacy, limiting use where accuracy is mandated — related
- ε=2.0 provides the best privacy–utility balance, while ε=0.5 introduces excessive noise that degrades performance below baseline on ASSIST09 — related
