Benchmarking the Utility of w-event Differential Privacy Mechanisms - When Baselines Become Mighty Competitors

Summary: Introduces a reproducible benchmark and formal comparability requirements for evaluating w-event DP mechanisms on streaming data, unifying inconsistent prior empirical studies. Large-scale evaluation reveals baseline supremacy—simple baselines often match or beat complex methods—and yields practical guidelines for practitioners and research directions.
