RE: Identity providers as first parties

Tamir,

Jonathan's proposal does attempt to address this point but many in the room feel this should be left to local law.  Justin Brookman and I took a pass at this language but it shifted to becoming overly prescriptive (legislating via tech standard) so many in the WG asked for local law to determine.

I would suggest this conversation be extracted from Jonathan's proposal to be handled separately as the rest of proposal has been mostly rejected by those in the WG that are intended to implement DNT in the real-world (on the 1st party/3rd party side).

More to come in Seattle...

- Shane

Shane -- I am not remotely attempting doing so.

As far back as I can see, the spec was going to put conditions on the 
means by which out of band consent can be sought.

Jonathan et al's proposal is:

1. Actual presentation: The choice mechanism MUST be actually presented 
to the user. It MUST NOT be on a linked page, such as a terms of service 
or privacy policy.
2. Clear terms: The choice mechanism MUST use clear, non-confusing 
terminology.
3. Independent choice: The choice mechanism MUST be presented 
independent of other choices. It MUST NOT be bundled with other user 
preferences.
4. No default permission: The choice mechanism MUST NOT have the user 
permission preference selected by default.
