entities are not colluding. Even if two entities do not collude directly, if both entities reveal
information to other parties, it will not be possible to guarantee that the information won't
be combined. However, there are some mitigations that can be applied
to reduce the risk of collusion happening in practice:

- Policy and contractual agreements between entities involved in partitioning, to disallow
logging or sharing of data, or to require auditing.
- Policy and contractual agreements between entities involved in partitioning to disallow
logging or sharing of data, along with auditing to validate that the policies are being followed.
For cases where logging is required (such as for service operation), such logged data should
be minimized and anonymized to prevent it from being useful for collusion.
- Protocol requirements to make collusion or data sharing more difficult.
- Adding more partitions and contexts, to make it increasingly difficult to collude with
enough parties to recover identities.
