Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] TAG review request: Verifiable Credentials Data Model 1.0 (#343)

Quite verbose privacy considerations, I'd say. Long, too. If desiring to simplify, this might be the place:

> For example remove the preface: "There are mechanisms external to verifiable credentials that are used to track and correlate individuals on the Internet and the Web. Some of these mechanisms include Internet protocol (IP) address tracking, web browser fingerprinting, evercookies, advertising network trackers, mobile network position information, and in-application Global Positioning System (GPS) APIs"
(remove?)

When discussing later "It is recommended that privacy-respecting systems prevent the use of these other tracking technologies when verifiable credentials are being used. In some cases, tracking technologies might need to be disabled on devices that transmit verifiable credentials on behalf of a holder."

It's not clear how/when "tracking technologies" should be disabled or why this would be preferable. Maybe better like "Systems deploying ... should consider disabling tracking technologies..."? 

> "For example, this document uses the ageOver property instead of a specific birthdate, which constitutes much stronger personally identifiable information"

Good thinking and illustrative.
