A useful network must be able to challenge the work that convenes it.

The network will not be presented as a board, committee or alliance until people, roles, consent and verifiable conflict-of-interest rules exist.

1. Independence. A genuine ability to disagree and publish objections.
2. Disciplinary diversity. Computer science, human–computer interaction, social science, law, ethics, safety and applied domains.
3. No commercial function. Scientific participation is not a product endorsement.
4. Declared conflicts. Relevant financial, institutional or intellectual relationships.
5. Traceable contribution. Authorship, review, advice or evaluation are attributed precisely.
