In-server threats to privacy are explicitly described in the DNS Privacy Considerations document (RFC 7626 ยง2.5), and the existence of in-server threats are not a reason to fail to address on-the-wire threats. The DPRIVE WG is chartered to address both on-the-wire and in-server threats: The primary focus of this Working Group is to develop mechanisms that provide confidentiality between DNS Clients and Iterative Resolvers, but it may also later consider mechanisms that provide confidentiality between Iterative Resolvers and Authoritative Servers, or provide end-to-end confidentiality of DNS transactions. > As, privacy is mostly an individual specific issue, and the term Personally > Identifiable Information (PII) is very specific, yet the scope is a subject > of matter. The lack of privacy in the DNS protocol is not an individual-specific issue. It enables the "widespread attack" of "pervasive monitoring", which the IETF has committed to mitigating (RFC 7258). This is a much broader issue than the existence or disclosure of personally identifiable data. -- Robert Edmonds
