Re: [proposals] Why would notice and consent not be adequate? (Notice and consent debate) (#5)

@darobin , I agree with you on most points:
- Consent and notice _alone_ are not efficient ways to protect user's privacy
- They should be seconded with privacy preserving mechanisms such as the ones debated in this group (PMC, on device, etc.)
However, to echo @michael-oneill 's point, I would feel better about assuming optout by default since this is likely going to be a requirement at least for EMEA. Once the solution is designed, we can review and eventually change to a optin by default if we can identify a solution to do so (no device access, exemption, etc.).
I just don't see the point to start with an assumption that is very likely going to be a blocker.
That said, I don't believe this to be a critical point for now, and as mentioned by @alextcone , I would rather have this group focus on what privacy model for the web means, along with solution to support such privacy model. I just don't feel comfortable having in writing that we assume an optin by default for future solution as our starting point, hence why I raised concerns.
