matatk: Expects an approach to start moving away from proprietary cookies
matatk: The ecommerce site wants to know what leads to sales; so challenge is to not identify an individual--just the sale
matatk: Goal is to balance user's privacy perogative and commerce data gathering
matatk: So an aggregation approach

Spec review requests
Audio Session
<matatk> w3c/
<matatk> Due: 2025-04-24
janina: I took on trying to figure this out. Struck me that they're figuring out how to balance all things audio, but there's no consideration of TTS. At least we need an accessibility considerations section, saying there may be TTS, which will be critical to managing their audio environment.
… But just saying 'be careful about TTS' seems insufficient. What can we point them to?
… Do we look for TTS?
matatk: Goes back to Author Proposes ...
matatk: Maybe we file an issue to figure this out with them?
janina: I can draft an issue
matatk: Anyone with ideas on starting this dialog?
