I believe this has already been discussed on the thread. But here it is
again, the id.loc protocols are in perspective here and they use ephemeral
identifiers, can obsfuscate them or encrypt them as Dino pointed out
earlier.

There is even text in the charter regarding this.

- Analysis of the concepts of identity-identifier split and dynamic
identifier changes, including their implications on anonymity and privacy.
Explicitly, the framework must define privacy requirements and how
potential extensions/solutions should meet them.

- Security analysis of the complete system, including authentication,
authorization requirements and protection of any metadata.

?? Not sure what /how this is in context .... Are we still taking about
routing information here?
