Responses to the Self-Review Questionnaire: Security and Privacy, filed against the 23 May 2024 Working Draft.

  1. What information does this feature expose, and for what purposes?

This is a passive feature (markup) which only allows an origin to convey text to a user, as would other HTML Text-level elements.

No information about or from the user nor their environment is exposed to any party.

  1. Do features in your specification expose the minimum amount of information necessary to implement the intended functionality?

They do not expose any information to anyone, other than conveying text from an origin to a user, as would other HTML Text-level elements.

  1. Do the features in your specification expose personal information, personally-identifiable information (PII), or information derived from either?

No.

  1. How do the features in your specification deal with sensitive information?

This is a passive feature (markup) which only allows an origin to convey text to a user, as would other HTML Text-level elements. It is not exposed to sensitive information, and therefore do not need to do anything about it.

No difference is made, and none seems appropriate or necessary.

  1. Does this specification have both "Security Considerations" and "Privacy Considerations" sections?

yes.

  1. Do features in your specification enable origins to downgrade default security protections?

No.

  1. What happens when a document that uses your feature is kept alive in BFCache (instead of getting destroyed) after navigation, and potentially gets reused on future navigations back to the document?

Nothing special. This is just marked up text.

  1. What happens when a document that uses your feature gets disconnected?

Nothing special. This is just marked up text.

  1. What should this questionnaire have asked?

Nothing additional seems needed. This is not a security of privacy sensitive feature.
