> How does Snowden have anything to do with a collaboration between Google and Hashicorp?
I don't think they have anything to do with each other. My point is that we know some weird things are happening and it's a put-down and a conversation stopper to call someone a tinfoil hat wearer.
(The best you can say is that the person you're insulting might have a mental illness.)
This is a pet peeve of mine because I knew about some of the hijinks that have gone down (and are going down) since before Snowden flushed his life down the toilet to get people to pay attention and I've been dismissed with that exact term. It's naive in a post-Snowden world to not postulate conspiracies.
