Especially since what I proposed is an automated process that is impartial. Likening it to "big brother" is completely baffling to me. Think about your first response to my original post. You first declare that it is a bad idea without giving any explanation. Anybody would find that very annoying. Next you state an opinion on how the prior experiment was a bad experience when it was obviously pretty benign. When this is pointed out to you, your solution is to snip it completely out in your reply! Should I be more worried about you than "big brother"?
