gollark: NONE are safe.
gollark: The issue with this sort of thing is generally defining harm.
gollark: Anyway, the "nonaggression principle" is a pretty popular thing for this; I think the idea is that you're allowed to harm other people/their property only if they do so to you/someone.
gollark: I should find a way to block typing notifications to be stealthier.
gollark: I MIGHT be.
