+<h3 id=tao-check>TAO check</h3>
+
+<p>To perform a <dfn id=concept-tao-check>TAO check</dfn> for a <var>request</var> and
+<var>response</var>, run these steps:
+
+<ol>
+ <li><p>If <var>response</var>'s <a for=request>timing allow failed flag</a> is set, then return
+ failure.
+
+ <li><p>If <var>request</var>'s <a for=request>tainted origin flag</a> is unset and
+ <var>response</var>'s <a for=response>location URL</a>'s <a for=url>origin</a> is
+ <a>same origin</a> with <var>request</var>'s <a for=request>origin</a>, then return success.

@yutakahirano explained reasoning for the tainted origin flag in CORS. While it's hard to see how to apply it to TAO, I'm not opposed to aligning here.
