you think I said it to be scary?

no. I didn't say it to be scary. I said it because it's the only way to identify platform manipulation.

like users that flip from one extreme to the other from comment to comment...

one second they say nobody cares about privacy and the next time they bemoan how the oligarchy owns us and we can't stop it(a clear cry for help if I ever heard one).

I want to track users like that so we can have a clearer understanding of who is abusing the platform.
