Notes

These are paper-prototype scaffolds, not polished participant copy. The strongest design boundaries are that Technology Consumer should remain broader than AI, Conversational Privacy should stay focused on disclosure and information boundaries, and Digital Relationships should remain humane and nonjudgmental while separating real human experience from mutual relationship and calibrated trust from unexamined dependence.
