+# Uncomment to require a user to share a room with another user in order
+# to retrieve their profile information. Only checked on Client-Server
+# requests. Profile requests from other servers should be checked by the
+# requesting server. Defaults to 'false'.

 # If set to 'true', removes the need for authentication to access the server's
 # public rooms directory through the client API, meaning that anyone can
 # query the room directory. Defaults to 'false'.
