gollark: The best I can do is just not setting cookies except for preference cookies with a very clear format, probably adding a "do not harvest this data" option, and opensourcing it (although of course I can run stuff different to the publicly viewable copy, for evil).
gollark: Well, I can't guarantee it, but also I can arbitrarily harvest basically any data anyway so trust me.
