I'd just write it down in the privacy considerations (that identifying parameters and sets of sensors with physical position) should be considered - as in the first post in this issue. As for examples - at the moment I am unaware of any, but we could write the considerations in a generic manner. Still, if the spec considers that this information can be available (if I understand correctly, it does?), we should document that this is available through the API. Then, if we'll have more details, we can then make an update. So something like: > In case a sensor type has more than one sensors, identifying parameters can potentially be used for fingerprinting the user's device. > > The list of sensors along with their physical location in a device can potentially be used for identifying purposes to fingerprint the user's device -- GitHub Notification of comment by lknik Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/sensors/issues/120#issuecomment-235940717 using your GitHub account
