Munditia subquadrata, ventral view
Species brought into synonymy
gollark: I could add colors and occasionally muck up the formatting slightly, have each sentence get its own header saying "Section 1, Clause 3" or something, maybe even have JS on the page subtly edit it as you scroll down!
gollark: It would actually support line wrapping, as well as Unicode, italic/bold/strikethrough, headers, external links, that sort of thing.
gollark: The current privacy policy viewing experience is honestly quite bad, so I think it could be way nicer if it opened in people's browsers.
gollark: At this rate I'll probably need a privacy policy autogen tool to keep it in sync!
gollark: Actually, there would be an RSS feed but it would only contain individual characters.
