    Maybe some people care about their privacy? A lot of ignorant webmasters load Facebook, Google analytics, twitter buttons and other privacy violating JavaScript. The only way to gu…

    Why is the on the frontpage? This is just a copy/dumb down of the original presentation. Also, the practical use of this idea is extremely limited. Also the poster seems to have an…
