4 months ago I implemented a simple version of the user guide just pointing from the navbar "For Users" to the pdf @moates provided. Pointing straight to the pdf works for me, but if you, @moates or @dharb, feel differently, we can also create a dedicated user site similar to the implementer site. The changes are in branch issue-75. Here is a screenshot. Clicking on "For Users" will bring up the pdf of @moates.
I have a few suggestions for the text of the pdf and attach a revised version below. What do you think, @moates? Can you create an updated pdf of how you see fit?
- "to better respect your privacy." -> "to respect your privacy."
- "can exercise your legal right to opt out" -> "will exercise your legal right to opt out"
- "some sites are legally bound to respect" -> "many sites are legally bound to respect"
- The What does GPC not do?/Downsides/Fingerprinting sections are bit too extensive for my taste. Can we shorten that to one or two sentences? Omit the fingerprinting risk as that is really really low. Maybe, just say something along the lines of "GPC does not work on all sites (we are working on it!) and is not a replacement for a tracking/ad blocker but instead helps you to exercise your legal rights to opt out." or something similar?
- Also, what should go into the placeholder in the pdf?
As discussed in the group meetings, we want to add a simple explainer for users.
My suggestions for this change would be:
I'm attaching the basic page content to get started that already received feedback from the group. I'm happy to try and take a stab at a PR. But if anyone has capacity, that would be preferable because i've never used any of this tooling & my npm build fails when I try to build this locally.
