Privacy, by default
Every response is citable.
- privacyLevel. public, k-anonymous, or dp-noised. Never ambiguous.
- kAnonymity. The minimum bucket size applied before any value was released.
- epsilonDP. The differential privacy budget spent on this query, when DP noise is applied.
- sourceCount. Independent upstream contributors behind the aggregate.
