 Most of the concepts I write about seem to come from the 70's and 80's, but differential privacy is a relatively new concept. It was first introduced in a paper from 2006 called [*Calibrating Noise to Sensitivity in Private Data Analysis*](https://desfontain.es/PDFs/PhD/CalibratingNoiseToSensitivityInPrivateDataAnalysis.pdf).
 
-The paper introduces the idea of adding noise to data to achieve privacy. Of course, adding noise to the dataset reduces its accuracy. Ɛ defines the amount of noise added to the dataset, with a small Ɛ meaning more privacy but less accurate data and vice versa.
+The paper introduces the idea of adding noise to data to achieve privacy. Of course, adding noise to the dataset reduces its accuracy. Ɛ defines the amount of noise added to the dataset, with a small Ɛ meaning more privacy but less accurate data and vice versa. It's also referred to as the "privacy loss parameter".
 
+Importantly, differential privacy adds noise *before* it's analyzed. k-anonymity relies on trying to anonymize data *after* it's collected, so it leaves the possibility that not enough parameters are removed to ensure each indidual cannot be identified.
