I don't really understand what you are saying or maybe are implying. Are you saying I want to see people dead? Are you saying everyone who is privacy minded secretly wants people to die?

What does a judge have to do with laws being passed?

Or do you mean something completely different?

I mostly just wished that I could post like you and I do right now on a personal website on a personal server without putting my home address on it. Basically for the same reason nobody seems to have it in their "About" here. Not sure why that should make me "buy a round" if someone dies.

Also wouldn't make much sense to be complaining about a law and then have a problem with laws being exercised. If one would not care about judges exercising laws, why would one hate them? Seems all a bit strange to me. Also never saw any privacy minded people like that are that hateful. Sounds a lot more like mafia or something. And there often the people seem to be kind of in the open, just like many extremists. So I guess they don't care about privacy?
