DNS-SD (DNS-based Service Discovery) normally discloses information
about devices offering and requesting services. This information
includes hostnames, network parameters, and possibly a further
description of the corresponding service instance. Especially when
mobile devices engage in DNS-based Service Discovery at a public
hotspot, serious privacy problems arise. We analyze the requirements
of a privacy-respecting discovery service.

This document is a product of the Extensions for Scalable DNS Service Discovery Working Group of the IETF.
