<h4>Linkage via JSON-LD Node Identifiers</h4>
<p>
JSON-LD is a JSON-based format for serialization of Linked Data. As such, it supports
assigning a globally unambiguous `@id` attribute (node identifier) to each object
("node", in JSON-LD terminology) within a document. This allows for <q>the linking
of linked data</q>, enabling information about the same entity to be correlated.
This correlation can be desirable or undesirable, depending on the use case.
</p>
<p>
When using BBS for its unlinkability feature, globally unambiguous node
identifiers cannot be used for individuals nor for their personally identifiable
information, since the strong linkage they provide is undesirable. Note that the
use of such identifiers is acceptable when expressing statements about non-personal
information (e.g., using a globally unambiguous identifier to identify a large
country or a concert event). Also note that JSON-LD's use of `@context`, which
maps terms to IRIs, does not, in general, affect unlinkability.
