Requesting a single controller is not all that the person may be requesting or that the law promises. (In many cases a single large controller can perpetrate more cross-context privacy harms than several small ones, and laws requiring OOPSes do put some obligations on large multi-context controllers)

I made changes there to clarify, let me know if it works.

New version looks much better, thank you

Please don't mix semantic changes into a PR that mostly just adds links. It makes it hard to notice and vet the semantic changes.

That's fair of course, but this isn't much of a semantic choice. "Potentially" is repeated two sentences in a row and the existence of this right isn't hypothetical by any measure. Happy to revert this change if you prefer but it's clear that this is a simple phrasing error.

This is a small and simple PR that updates GPC to be more anchored in the Privacy Principles now that they have been ratified (along with a couple of typos). This helps ensure a coherent use of privacy across the platform, as intended by the TAG.
(This PR references concepts that were unfortunately not exported correctly; this should be fixed in a few hours as xref republishes. Otherwise, I will make another fix.)
