Re: [meetings] Agenda Request - Review Working Group Charter Changes (#52)

@jwrosewell The user agent does not always have the ability to negotiate FRAND terms on which to share its user's personal information. In many places, the user must consent, or has the right to opt out. The user agent can't commit to FRAND terms, or any specific terms.

The user agent can only control its own actions. A workable FRAND requirement might be something like, "If the user agent does not have consent to share some piece of user data on FRAND terms, the user agent will not use that data for on-device ad placement or reporting"?

@npdoty I agree that a positive data sharing mandate on browsers is unworkable. It might be more workable to limit on-device advertising placement and reporting to only act on FRAND-licensed data. (We still don't know what percentage of users will consent to any of the systems proposed in this CG. Unless users have a high level of math and infosec knowledge, it's unlikely that they will consent substantially more or less to on-device processing compared to multi-party/FRAND processing.)
