Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Web Machine Learning Model Loader API (Issue #759)

For the record, I am anything but pro-DRM.

The word "DRM" likely spooked people here, but unlike conventional DRM where you are 1) running mystery meat code for decryption (see: CDM) or 2) mystery meat code (which could be potentially malicious) that is protected (see: DRM protected executables which prevent inspection) - this (as of today) would mostly be a form of protected transport from an origin to the compute backend. As it would mostly be coefficients for known operations (e.g. dot products) it won't have the same level of implications as conventional DRM.

(There is the question of obstruction of interpretability in the context of ethics, W3C likely does not have the right expertise for that discussion.)
