Re: oo.apple.com

Ah yes, the idea of a notice standard I am proposing is similar.

Although, from what I understand,  P3P was designed to enable web site  
operators to express their data collection, use, sharing, and  
retention practices in a machine-readable format.

What I am referring to is the idea of a standard focused on a common  
location and format to increase accessibility of information for  
notices that are legally required to be as open as possible.  (from  
privacy policies, TOSA, AUP, to include even offline notices like  
public infrastructure signs, video surveillance signs, street signs,  
etc)
