    "body_text": "The study argues that sensitive attributes have context-dependent utility: a detail may be essential to one request and disposable in another, while combinations of attributes can reveal more than either alone. Its local protection pipeline uses a distilled 4B model to extract, sanitize and restore context, choosing removal or replacement according to the task’s need for factual integrity or structural coherence. The authors report a lower-leakage operating point with more utility than tested privacy baselines. Those claims come from the reported evaluations; the abstract does not establish protection against every inference attack.",
