Nemmerlig, modsat "de jure" standarder som er specifikationer der udformes af konsortier eller standardiseringsorganisationer. Fra http://www.state.ky.us/kirm/it_intro.htm:

    De jure standards are generally known as public or industry
    standards, established by public bodies.  These standards are
    endorsed and disseminated by official standards organizations. 

    De facto standards are generally created by a single vendor with
    market dominance or a highly specialized niche product.  They may
    be widely used and implemented, but controlled by a single vendor or
    group."
