Abstract:

We propose Verito, a practical solution that provides transparency and accountability for purchase of virtual goods and services online platforms like Facebook, Xbox and IOS. Consumer interests, including transparency, fairness, non-repudiation, and performance issues, are protected through the use of a novel combination of cryptographic solutions, without the need to rely solely on platform providers or regulation.
