<h3>Privacy considerations for implementers of Capture API</h3>
+ <p>In addition to the requirements already highlighted in the
+ [[!HTML5]] and [[!FILE-API]] specifications, implementors should
+ take care of additional leakage of privacy-sensitive data from
+ captured media. For instance, embedding the user's location in a
+ captured media metadata (e.g. EXIF) might transmit more private
+ data than the user might be expecting.</p>

mechanism that protects the user's privacy and this mechanism SHOULD
ensure that privacy information is not revealed without user's
