39: Metaphors matter;  application-layer; distribute more | Larry Masinter
https://www.w3.org/2014/strint/papers/39.pdf
Abstract: 
1. Dont say Attack: IETF should stay away from political theatre: changing protocols or workflows not because the change works but just to say you did something. Metaphors matter.
2. For most relevant threats, traffic analysis is enough, and encyption doesnt mitigate.
3. The only deployable protection -- if that is what is wanted -- means shifting architecture from client-server to mesh.
