Re: [proposals] Possible solutions debate (#7)

I will add that one of the nice features of MPC is that the IETF is working on the [Privacy Preserving Measurement](https://abetterinternet.github.io/ppm-specification/draft-gpew-priv-ppm.html) (PPM) spec, which essentially standardizes a subset of MPC solutions ([Verifiable Distributed Aggregation Functions](https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-patton-cfrg-vdaf-00.html) (VDAFs)). In my opinion, leveraging other standards like these will both help this group build consensus and help build confidence in the security and privacy properties of solutions developed by this group. 

I agree with those above that PPM/VDAF/MPC aren't the only paths available to us, but they are useful work we can build upon.
