<p>
Specification authors that create status schemes are provided the following
guideline:
Credential status specifications MUST NOT enable tracking of individuals, such
as an [=issuer=] being notified (either directly or indirectly) when a
[=verifier=] is interested in a specific [=holder=] or [=subject=]. Unacceptable
approaches include "phoning home," such that every use of a credential contacts
the [=issuer=] of the credential to check the status for a specific individual,
or "pseudonymity reduction", such that every use of the credential causes a
request for information from the [=issuer=] that can be used by the [=issuer=]
to deduce [=verifier=] interest in a specific individual.
