+// typed by nobody. So this module is the whole defence, and every rule in it is deterministic, local and runs without a
+// model: a window with private-life vocabulary never leaves the machine, and a query is admitted only when it has no digit,
+// no amount, no deny-list word, no person's name (speaker, owner), none of the owner's own terms (a whole vocabulary or
+// domain-keyword term, never one word of it) and no repeat. It holds no real names: the names it blocks come from the live
+// transcript, the speakers the ASR path reports, every enrolled voice profile and the owner's profile at run time.
+//
+// RESIDUAL RISK, by design: a private person who is named in the room but never speaks and is not enrolled is caught by no
