Right. 

But it can also be expressed as the issuer is not interested in events on subject x. The expectation is that the receiver than decides to remove the subject from the reciprocating feed. However it is not a command. 

It is the same subtle difference that the logout spec has. It is saying "this service provider has canceled sid y for subject x". The expectation is that the receiver cancels their local session z.

I think we can deal with this if Amazon sends a SET token to google with an "account created" event which would then create a registration at google for Amazon to receive events about alice at .

From Google's perspective, we would white list a set of partners where we have contracts to enable implicit registration. I think we should work out some response codes to make it clear to the sender whether the registration succeeded.
