"Defensive copying of parameters is not just for immutable classes. Anytime you write a method or constructor that enters a client-provided object into an internal data structure, think about whether the client-provided object is potentially mutable.

If the answer is no, you must defensively copy the object and enter the copy into the data structure in place of the original."
