 With additional information, such as the names of the other routing nodes, it could infer who is making these payments, who is receiving them, and for what amounts.
 footnote:[Note that not all Lightning nodes are anonymous.
 It is known, for example, that the nodes "aantonop" and "1.ln.aantonop.com" are owned by the author of this book Andreas Antonopolous.
-Furthermore, many companies and businesses in this space use a publicly known name for their routing nodes.
-If we see, for example, a payment with destination "Bitrefill", we could infer that someone is making a purchase from Bitrefill.
+Furthermore, companies and businesses in this space can claim ownership of a node by publicizing their node's alias and pubkey on their website or social media
+If we see, for example, a payment with destination "Bitrefill" with a node pubkey that matches Bitrefill's publicized pubkey, we could infer that someone is making a purchase from Bitrefill.
 If we know the prices of their services, we could even infer what they purchased. ]
 If it has multiple routing nodes connected to each other, it might even be responsible for transmitting several of the hops in a single payment and could form a more complete picture of the route.
