Claim One:
1. A computationally-implemented method of obscuring property data of devices to allow service providers to generate one or more services prior to receiving the property data, said method comprising: acquiring property data regarding at least one property of one or more devices; generating anonymized data by altering the acquired property data to obscure one or more portions of the acquired property data that uniquely identify the one or more devices and/or one or more users of the one or more devices; presenting the anonymized data to one or more service providers configured to generate one or more services; and acquiring the generated one or more services, said generated one or more services at least partly based on the anonymized data, said acquiring the generated one or more services including: offering deanonymizing data that includes a lookup table, wherein the lookup table is configured to allow replacement of non-identifying data of the anonymized data with data that uniquely identifies at least one of the one or more devices on which the anonymized data is based, to a particular service provider that generated the particular service, in exchange for receiving a particular service of the one or more generated services.
