Re: [Geopriv] [geopriv] #27: Subjective network views and policy

Ah, I see. Since it confused me, I would recommend a slight edit:

For instance, it is possible that the LIS could apply the incorrect
authorization policy if it selects the policy using a subjective
identifier. Alternatively, it may use the correct policy but apply it
incorrectly if subjective identifiers are used.
