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

Fascinating discussion despite the aggressive bits.

@darobin- "There is however no known way to share a significant portion of
cross-context reading history with a party, at scale, based on consent, and
so the reasonable application of consent for this group is to not rely on
it." Does this mean that this is a limitation of browsers which cannot
share significant portions of cross-context reading history at scale? Would
be great if you could elaborate a bit here. Thanks!
