If we ever "lose user account data" and ask you to sign up again (or remove account functionality entirely), then you should not trust this site any longer.

If this were to happen (extremely unlikely), then this site would now be an FBI honeypot.

You would also likely start to see "mods" (not us) encouraging all to post violence.


I believe you can trust this site for as long as your user accounts work, which will hopefully be forever.

Keep in mind that to verify whether your user accounts do work, you also need to check whether an incorrect password doesn't work.

Well, I don't normally like quoting movies, but there's a great quote in V for Vendetta. If you haven't seen that movie, you should watch it. It means more now than it did when it came out.

Anyway, the quote is "Behind this mask is an idea. And ideas are bulletproof." Meaning, you can't kill an idea. And that's the problem with communism. It's an idea. A terrible, awful idea.

The irony is, that movie's premise is a right wing tyrannical overlord.

But, Hollywood.

They overlooked a small detail. You don't have to be any wing to be tyrannical.

It would be fairly hard to actually be a right wing Tyrant, since the right wing doesn't seem to like large governments. Small governments can't really control everything, which is needed to be a tyranny. Left wingers, like the people who made V for Vendetta, tend to gloss over that.
