1st party clarification #7

Closed keyo321 closed 2 years ago

keyo321 commented 2 years ago

Hi @bslassey,

Thank you for sharing details about this proposal in today's W3C meeting. I have a follow-up question and want additional clarification regarding the question about site operators/1st party owners/1st party sets. As a publisher/site owner of somesite.com, will I see the original IP of users visiting somesite.com or will their IPs be proxied/masked for me as well?

thanks

If somesite.com is Willfully IP Blind (i.e. conforms to the policy we generate from the proposed principles) then it will have a direct connection and therefore have access to the original IP address. Otherwise the traffic will be routed through the Near-Path NAT and be masked.

@bslassey Can you share additional details about how or who will be the governing entity to ensure a party is following or not violating the proposed principles?

@keyo321 this explainer refers to signed attestations, audits and spot checking as ways to confirm following a particular policy: https://github.com/bslassey/ip-blindness/blob/master/willful_ip_blindness.md But if you have more questions, I think a separate, new issue would be a good way to manage that discussion.
