gollark: Not potatOS's.
gollark: > You also agree that unless you disable remote debugging services and/or backdoors in potatOS before installation, data available via these may be used at any time for the purposes of remote debugging, analysis of what potatOS users have installed, random messing around, or anything whatsoever. You also agree that your soul is forfeit to me.
