There are cases in which intermediation is the only resort for a user to protect their privacy and security from misbehaving endpoints (e.g. a firewall or filter blocking IoT objects on the local network from connecting to undesired destinations, or preventing the unsuspecting user's browser to connect to a phishing page). We should first understand how the relationship between protocol intermediaries and endpoint intermediaries plays out in terms of user-centred objectives, and only then make recommendations.

I don't understand how the Internet Engineering Task Force can
meaningfully address endpoint security. Nor have I seen an example of
how 3552 updates would meaningfully address this, or changes in
protocols that would help either. If the product you want is Ware
report 2.0, that's potentially valuable, but not I think what we need
for the I part of the IETF.
