COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------


- section 6 intro: I'm not sure I buy that the set of relevant
threats is only a union as stated. There are often new threats
in new environments.

- 6.6: I think one can also leak private information by
searching in too broad a scope, e.g. if the client can be
fingerprinted allowing re-identification. I think that's
different from the example given, and maybe worth noting too.
