Re: [dow2tf] Draft Questions for GAC

[Thomas Roessler <roessler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Kathy!

I'd add this one:

	6) Does your country have ... laws that govern whether a
	service providere can condition the provision of the service
	on the user's consent to the collection and/or processing of
	data not needed for the provision of the service?

		a) If you are a common law country, are there legal
		cases that control such behavior?

(Less cumbersome wording welcome.)
