Wait, is it illegal to *checks notes* have personal privacy?

absolutely disgusting, you're telling me that you don't want to be stalked 24/7? that you don't want the whole world to know everything you're doing? how dare you imply that you're a human being and that privacy is one of the most important rights you have? now dance monkey, dance /s

to quote professor farnsworth: I don't want to live on this planet anymore
