I think what we might want to do is add a probe that counts how many users actually enter the state where they're using more than one player window.

What we could do is have the PictureInPictureParent actors, upon instantiation, increment a counter in the PictureInPicture object, and upon destruction (via didDestroy), decrement that counter. Then, in an else branch here: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/44e6dfd7e02edd95e5fd4d4c25c8b946131f92cd/toolkit/components/pictureinpicture/PictureInPicture.jsm#314-318

we can record the probe if that count > 0.

Hunter, I suggest adding in the counter that increments and decrements. I'll go into detail on what kind of probe to add (and how to add it) in a follow-up comment.

Hey Hunter, if you have a second, would you mind updating this probe to expire in version 91 instead of 90? The holiday delayed the landing of this patch, and so we should move the expiry to get the full 5-6 months of data and analysis.

DATA COLLECTION REVIEW RESPONSE:

Is there or will there be documentation that describes the schema for the ultimate data set available publicly, complete and accurate?

Yes.

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

Yes. This collection is Telemetry so can be controlled through Firefox's Preferences.

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

No. This collection will expire in six months.

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

Category 2, Interaction.

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

Default on for all channels.

Does the instrumentation include the addition of any new identifiers?

No.

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

Yes.

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

Yes. :mconley is responsible for renewing or removing the collection before it expires in six months.
