Hi, I think that CTG should mention the fact that, in case of transcoding, no extra content should be injected without the consent of the original content owner. The idea is to avoid that W3C protocols/guidelines implicitly endorse the attempt by those who manage the transcoder to monetize on the effort/investment of other people. Of course, there is also a point that injecting extra content will invariably affect usability negatively and as such should be avoided. I suggest the following addition: "4.3.6.3 Injection of external content In its effort to optimise the user experience of non-mobile optimised sites, a proxy *should not* inject extra content into the transcoded pages, where the term 'extra content' refers to text, links, banners and other multimedia content which is not available on the original untranscoded page. Addition of links aimed at implementing pagination and navigational shortcuts is admissible. Note: For clarity, it is emphasised that W3C does not endorse injection of third-party content into a transcoded page without the explicit consent of the content owner" Can this comment be added to the tracking system? Thank you Luca Passani
