You can decide to use the container based approach that declares a whole container which contains any p13n relevant content as uncacheable (default behavior, nothing new) or switch to the new approach which will declare single items inside the containers as uncacheable by adding and enabling a new boolean setting p13n-dynamic-include-per-item to the page.
