Continuing Example~\ref{ex:scenario}, Bob cares about protecting his {\thethings} ($p_1$, $p_3$, $p_5$, $p_8$) along with every release that he makes, however he is not equally interested for the other regular events in his trajectory.
Continuing Example~\ref{ex:scenario}, Quackmore cares about protecting his {\thethings} ($p_1$, $p_3$, $p_5$, $p_8$) along with every release that he makes, however he is not equally interested for the other regular events in his trajectory.
More technically, he cares about allocating a total budget of $\varepsilon$ on any set of timestamps containing the {\thethings} and one regular event.
Event-level protection is not suitable for this case, since it can only protect one event at a time.
So, let us assume that we apply user-level privacy\footnote{In this scenario, in order to protect all the {\thethings} from timestamp $1$ to $8$, $w$ must be set to $8$, which makes $w$-event privacy equivalent to user-level.}, by distributing equal portions of $\varepsilon$ to all the events, i.e.,~$\frac{\varepsilon}{8}$ to each one (see Figure~\ref{fig:st-cont}).
