 ## Recipient Removal
 
-A notification MAY be sent to inform a target OCM Server that a share
-recipient (e.g. a user or group) was removed from the list of trusted
-users, following a previous successful Invitation, or otherwise left
-the realm of the sending OCM Server.  That recipient may have been
-previously known to the target server because of existing shares whose
-shareType matched it.  The recipient of such notification SHOULD
-reciprocally remove that peer from the list of trusted users, along
-with any related shares.
+A notification MAY report a single contact removal, a user leaving
+the Sending Server's realm, or a group removal.

+MUST NOT withdraw or reject existing Shares in either direction, or
+affect other users' contacts. Each user MAY separately withdraw Shares
+they issued or decline Shares they received, using the corresponding
+per-share notifications.
+
+For "USER_REMOVED" and "GROUP_REMOVED", the Receiving Server SHOULD
+remove the departed recipient from its trusted users and related
+shares. A single contact removal MUST NOT be reported as user departure.
