I've updated PR#16 to reframe this paragraph as a statement of fact: 
https://github.com/tlswg/draft-ietf-tls-svcb-ech/pull/16/files

It seems strange to me to describe a vulnerability without explaining how to 
mitigate it, but I'm willing to move forward if this is all we have consensus 
for.

I don't really think it's helpful to re-litigate the broader topic of the 
merits of ECH; nothing we say in security considerations will make a material 
difference there. With that said, I don't love the last sentence as we know 
users

I don't really think it's helpful to re-litigate the broader topic of the 
merits of ECH; nothing we say in security considerations will make a material 
difference there.

With that said, I don't love the last sentence as we know users don't really 
choose their resolvers. How about simply stating the facts:

"This specification does not effectively conceal the target domain name from an 
untrusted resolver."

I do not think this conflict of views can be resolved. The draft is intended to 
show how it ECH should be used to preserve it’s security guarantees, and there 
are groups in the DNS community who say this prevents their normal course of 
operation, and providing the features that they provide.  I apologize in 
advance if anyone finds my wording clumsy or, worse, offensive. I was trying to 
use neutral words throughout.



I think we just acknowledge that in the security considerations and declare the 
issue closed.
