Early Privacy Review Request: Web Neural Network API

Hi PING,

This is a heads-up there's work in progress to form a Web Machine Learning Working Group [1] following the workshop recommendation [2] to start formal standardization work on the basis of the Web Neural Network API [3], an API currently incubated in the Web Machine Learning Community Group [4]. We've also made available to you an explainer [5] you may find helpful.

We're reaching out to PING specifically to get privacy experts' early privacy review feedback for the Web Neural Network API [3]. *Early*, to emphasize this API is not yet on the W3C Rec Track -- we understand your primary focus is on the work on the Rec Track.

To facilitate this early feedback gathering, we've opened an issue [6] in our GH repo for the self-review questionnaire responses and welcome your feedback there.

We are happy to join a future PING call to discuss this technology.

Any feedback is welcome.

Thanks,

-Anssi (WebML CG chair)
