This article seems to be pushing for the Privacy Engineer's Manifesto using the diagram, even though in my opinion, it's not a definitive work. It's present on a very large image and hence the text size is huge, much bigger than the normal text in the article. I am concerned that this constitutes advertisement, without due cause.185.85.220.252 (talk) 11:30, 15 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

The source for the NIST definition does not lead to the quoted NIST definition. Additionally, if you follow the presented link and go to the project site, a different definition will be provided. IMO it either has to be updated or better framed. A possible solution is as well to go for the Definition given by Seda Gursus and Jose del Alamo at the IEEE Workshop (“an emerging research framework that focuses on designing, implementing, adapting, and evaluating theories, methods, techniques, and tools to systematically capture and address privacy issues in the development of sociotechnical systems.”). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:2788:1006:274A:291A:CFF2:5E4F:1FBB (talk) 07:09, 9 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
