Personnel

gollark: See, it would be REALLY evil-mastermind if you actually came up with a really convincing argument that Google's privacy invasion was good and convinced us. But this is just stupid.
gollark: The thing is, andrew, it makes you seem stupider in aggregate, so people consider you stupider and are less likely to think "hmm maybe he is PRETENDING".
