agendum 2 -- New Privacy and Payments resources -- taken up [from Ian]
15:07:31 [Ian]
-> https://github.com/w3c/webpayments/tree/gh-pages/privacy Privacy and Payments
15:07:50 [Ian]
smcgruer_[EST]: We have documented how privacy changes might impact changes on the Web.
15:08:05 [Ian]
...a lot on 3p cookie decprecation, but also about the general question of privacy.
15:08:09 [Ian]
...we have three sections:
15:08:24 [Ian]
-> https://github.com/w3c/webpayments/blob/gh-pages/privacy/problem.md Problem statement
15:08:30 [Ian]
-> https://github.com/w3c/webpayments/blob/gh-pages/privacy/payment-flows/README.md Payment flows
15:08:37 [Ian]
-> https://github.com/w3c/webpayments/blob/gh-pages/privacy/use-cases/README.md Things that will break
15:08:58 [Ian]
smcgruer_[EST]: I invite people to help flesh these out and to let us know about things that are important to you and that, in particular, you think will break
15:09:41 [Ian]
Ian: What can we do?
15:09:53 [Ian]
smcgruer_[EST]: Would appreciate individuals reading these and letting us know their thoughts.
15:09:59 [Ian]
...welcome pull requests
15:10:18 [Ian]
nicktr: What other consultations are going on between browsers and payments industry?
15:10:31 [Ian]
smcgruer_[EST]: As Chrome, our main forum is WPWG / WPSIG
15:10:42 [Ian]
...we do have other partnerships via other parts of Google
15:11:08 [Ian]
...this is the main forum.
15:11:35 [Ian]
nick: We should let various groups outside and within W3C about this.
15:11:48 [Ian]
....e.g., MAG, Conexxus, etc.
15:12:14 [Ian]
Ian: In W3C: PING, WPSIG

15:13:11 [Ian]
Gerhard: Let's walk through some of this during our sessions.
15:13:31 [Ian]
...the pages are focused on "the rails"
15:13:49 [Ian]
...if you look at how open banking and FAPI works, payments are initiated in a different way
15:14:21 [Ian]
...the surprises will happen around where and how you get customer consent, rather than how the money is moved
15:15:09 [Ian]
...might be useful to build out the authentication / consent mechanisms in the different scenarios
15:15:42 [Ian]
...what might be useful is that we may find we know will be problems.
15:15:58 [Ian]
...e.g., we know that the method URL in an iframe will create this or that problem.
15:16:09 [Ian]
q?
15:16:41 [Ian]
nicktr: what is slightly reassuring is that Stephen has already mentioned behaviors that have already changed (e.g., cookie behavior in some browsers)
15:16:53 [smcgruer_[EST]]
q+ to comment on that
15:17:18 [Ian]
nicktr: Also would be interesting to hear issues in non-card space
15:17:20 [Ian]
ack smcgruer_[EST]
15:17:20 [Zakim]
smcgruer_[EST], you wanted to comment on that
15:17:55 [Ian]
smcgruer_[EST]: Agree world didn't end when Safari and Mozilla changed cookie behaviors, so that's mildly reassuring. But I think there are some things that will break that are of concern.
15:18:12 [Ian]
...beyond 3p cookie changes, there's a broader question about the future direction.
15:18:23 [Ian]
q+
15:18:45 [Ian]
smcgruer_[EST]: We also have to take a look at future payment models that are privacy protecting
15:19:35 [Ian]
Manish: 3p cookies IMO are less of an issue for open banking
15:19:44 [Ian]
...due to the model

Ian: I think it would be interesting to do some vision work, although I find in practice that what gains traction may not always align with our higher level thinking
15:22:53 [Ian]
NickTR: In open banking, 3p cookies are often used for hints (e.g., user's preferred bank)
15:23:06 [smcgruer_[EST]]
q+
15:23:07 [Ian]
...once in a 1p context, I agree that 3p cookies are less relevant

ack smcgruer_[EST]
15:23:52 [Ian]
smcgruer_[EST]: +1 to nick. One concrete thing I heard is that due to choice of banks, 3p cookie often used for keeping track of user pref
15:24:12 [smcgruer_[EST]]
https://github.com/WICG/FedCM/blob/main/explainer/problem.md#navigational-tracking may be worth a read btw, for privacy cases that don't have to do with 3p cookies but which seem applicable to all of payments
15:24:17 [Ian]
nicktr: Payment handlers were designed to allow explicit consent
