Notes

    gollark: I mean, maybe legally depending on jurisdiction.
    gollark: You cannot, legally or ethically, stop this occurring.
    gollark: You are actively going to significant effort to STOP your thing being used for good.
    gollark: Mildly more frankly than usual, this appears like an apioformic attempt to remain smugly intellectually superior at the expense of everyone else.
