@AramZS As you asked about Ethical Web Principles. "or even be used to cause harm." - 'harm' is not defined and in any case is outside the scope of a technical standards body. Some people will consider the possibility of a technology being used to cause harm a reason to remove or interfere with that technology. Others will see it as an opportunity to improve compliance with laws to reduce the risk of it being abused. The Ethical Web Principles need to align to laws, just like the PAT Working Group charter. Without this the W3C creates quasi-laws that neither it, or the individuals that participate, have the authority to do that. If individuals are motivated by the Ethical Web Principles then that is a matter for them. Requiring the entire group to be motivated by a single position concerning ethics is non-secular. -- GitHub Notification of comment by jwrosewell Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/patcg/patwg-charter/issues/32#issuecomment-1171357506 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
