That's almost the definition of in-band exceptions, isn't it? So, in both OO and IN band you start by informing the user, and getting their consent. Then, for in-band exceptions you call the API. For OOBE you remember it somehow. In either case, the well-known resource 'edit' link should tell you how to manage the condition. > This appears to be the middle ground that would give users a consolidated place to view exceptions/OOBC and have direct links to exercise their choices. This is NOT equating UGE to OOBC - but does give users centralized control. Thoughts? What are the differences then in your mind between in-band (recorded using the exception API and signalled with DNT:0) and out-of-band, exceptions? > > - Shane > > -----Original Message----- > From: Rigo Wenning [mailto:rigo@w3.org] > Sent: Tuesday, June 18, 2013 1:19 AM > To: public-tracking@w3.org > Cc: Matthias Schunter (Intel Corporation); Rob van Eijk > Subject: Re: Batch closing of TPE related issues > > On Monday 10 June 2013 14:39:48 Matthias Schunter wrote: >> Do I understand you correctly that >> - you are concerned if UGEs are translated into out of band >> exceptions? > > Matthias, have you ever tried to revoke your consent or to opt out of one of those ridiculous UK ICO cookie banners? > > I think that a UGE MUST NOT be translated into OOBC, a user MUST be able to revoke UGE by deleting the exception in the store. > > The whole point of DNT is a centralized opt-out in the browser. This means Shane's local duplication is meaningless. It may only serve as a memory for some historical state, but MUST NOT overwrite the status of the UGE store in the browser. Otherwise the exercise is futile because Johnny can't opt out anymore. > > --Rigo > > David Singer Multimedia and Software Standards, Apple Inc.
