* Collaborate with digital media companies and progressive brands to understand how we might foster an advertising system that's not based on invasive profiling, ad fraud, and brand degradation. How might we work with publishers on better consent management platforms/CMPs? And perhaps also with opt-in ad providers, like Good Loop?

* Identify areas of data management where control/management demonstrably matters to users (e.g. this isn't hard to explain) and where such user management would also prove valuable to some set of businesses. In this model, companies are free to refuse service if 'sufficient' data (their definition) isn't provided. It's imperative we begin understanding and shaping the business side value here.

* How might we tie this to class action lawsuits to increase 'risk' in the system, thus driving business interest in less data on a 'need-to-know' only basis? Could enable Firefox Monitor users to file suits. <br />




Other observations from All Hands include: <br />
:"This could save users attention!! Attention is Mozilla’s next ‘privacy’"

:"What are a community's motivations and incentives around this?"
:"Don’t overlook role of individuals consent manager, perhaps as a starting point"

Other observations from All Hands include: <br />
:"We have a potentially important point of leverage (education, movement building) with how we can illuminate the 'black box' of trackers and the companies behind them to Firefox browser users."

:"There is no data privacy awareness in Asia. Why would they use this?"
