I think the onus is on the spec development side to show how privacy issues are 
addressed (mitigated).
Hence, using “Privacy-By-Design” principles [1] (for example).

The current FHIR core spec uses a secure protocol for exchange of data (ie good 
design) for XML/JSON.
But if we then say - here is how you encode FHIR data in public web pages and 
publish schema.org URIs - then we must be able to specifically address these 
privacy concerns. (I imagine a lot of Privacy Advocacy groups would be 
interested if they saw that.)

Does that mean you are encoding FHIR Data using RDFa/Microdata? (and using 
schema.org URIs for all the FHIR concepts?)
