On the wiki I have put the following proposal to deal with this issue:

Add the following sentence after the first sentence of the first party 
definition:

Accessing a particular URI does not necessarily imply intent to interact 
with the URI-provider, especially when that URI-provider provides a 
transparent conduit to other parties' content, as would be the case for 
content delivery networks, link shorteners and similar service providers 
and third parties. In such cases the URI-provider is, from a user 
perspective, a non-obvious participant in the network interaction.

Regards,

  Walter
