    Designing for privacy is seen many times as designing to minimize the collection of users' data. In this talk we will discuss that designing for privacy goes beyond minimization and in most cases it means to limit the ways in which the collected data can be used. We will also discuss what this design philosophy means for the use of (digital) identities when engineering privacy-preserving systems.
