agreiner has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/dxwg: == Privacy concern with profile negotiation == The Privacy and Security section states that "there are no known security or privacy impacts of this feature." There is one privacy issue that I think we should acknowledge. That is the fact that offering a list of acceptable profiles in the beginning of a negotiation can reveal information about the user's interests. It takes relatively few data points of that type to begin to compromise privacy. Headers facilitating server-side content negotiation could become a new method of mining data about users.
