📖What it means
The principle that no user's data is ever shared with another user — including with the admin. The only exception the constitution allows is a genuine hazard to a person or to the system. This is a principle, so no policy or convenience may erode it.
⚖️What it is NOT
The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.
Not: Confidential
User isolation fences one PERSON's data from other people; confidential fences an app's records so each AGENT sees only its own.
