* Here's what the `isNiceToAnimals` policy from above might look like:

* We'll make some educated guesses about whether our system will
* consider this user someone who is nice to animals.
*
* Besides protecting rabbits (while a noble cause, no doubt),
* here are a few other example use cases for policies:
*
* + cookie-based authentication
* + role-based access control
* + limiting file uploads based on MB quotas
* + OAuth
* + BasicAuth
* + or any other kind of authentication scheme you can imagine
