Currently we would create WMF decoder module on different processes (chrome/content/rdd/gpu) and we would like to know the percentage of WMF usage for each process.

Because we're not able to record telemetry from RDD process, so I changed my mind. Maybe we should record some data to know the percentage of using remote data decoder v.s. the percentage of using decoder in content/chrome process. Will file a new bug for that.

Reopen this bug, because I still want to know how many users are still using WMF on content process, or on chrome process.

The data-review is for a permanent collection but I see that it's set to expire in 93, which makes sense to me for this probe.

I left a comment on the diff that this could also be implemented equivalently as a simple (non-keyed) scalar, but that doesn't affect the data review.

--

  1. Is there or will there be documentation that describes the schema for the ultimate data set in a public, complete, and accurate way?

Yes, in the probe definition files and the Probe Dictionary.

  1. Is there a control mechanism that allows the user to turn the data collection on and off?

Yes, the Firefox telemetry opt-out.

  1. If the request is for permanent data collection, is there someone who will monitor the data over time?

Yes, alwu.

  1. Using the category system of data types on the Mozilla wiki, what collection type of data do the requested measurements fall under?

Category 1, technical data.

  1. Is the data collection request for default-on or default-off?

Default-on.

  1. 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.

  1. Is the data collection covered by the existing Firefox privacy notice?

Yes.

  1. Does there need to be a check-in in the future to determine whether to renew the data?

alwu et al are responsible for renewing the probe as needed.

  1. Does the data collection use a third-party collection tool?

No.
