We would like telemetry to help inform the decision around turning on block autoplay, and also to give the data science team some insights into the volume of pings they expect to receive for the shield study. We'd like to add the following probes: * Count of top level documents viewed; scalar uint. * Count of top level documents which contained (directly or in a subdocument) playback of audible media elements; scalar uint. * Count of top level documents which contained (directly or in a subdocument) muted videos that try to unmute but would have been paused due to block autoplay logic; scalar uint. * Count of total number of videos that would have been blocked; scalar uint. * Count of total videos that would not have been blocked; scalar uint.

Comment on attachment 8992832 [details] Data collection request 1) Is there or will there be **documentation** that describes the schema for the ultimate data set available publicly, complete and accurate? Yes, in Scalars.yaml. 2) Is there a control mechanism that allows the user to turn the data collection on and off? Yes, telemetry setting. 3) If the request is for permanent data collection, is there someone who will monitor the data over time?** Not permanent. 4) Using the **[category system of data types](https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Data_Collection)** on the Mozilla wiki, what collection type of data do the requested measurements fall under? ** Category 1 (information about features and APIs used by websites). 5) Is the data collection request for default-on or default-off? Default ON only in pre-release channels. 6) Does the instrumentation include the addition of **any *new* identifiers** (whether anonymous or otherwise; e.g., username, random IDs, etc. See the appendix for more details)? No. 7) Is the data collection covered by the existing Firefox privacy notice? Yes 8) Does there need to be a check-in in the future to determine whether to renew the data? No, telemetry alerts are fine.
