Remove another confusing reference to DID ownership #108

Closed jandrieu closed 5 years ago

jandrieu commented 5 years ago

The primary intention is that a DID Document lists public keys whose corresponding private keys are controlled by the entity identified by the DID ("owned" public keys). However, a DID Document MAY also list "non-owned" public keys.

This is confusing. The net result of the statement is that keys in DID may or may not be controlled by the "owner" of the DID.

So... this whole paragraph should go. It doesn't clarify anything.
