Hi there,

i just read this on a random blog, and have no idea about the details or whether the claim is actually true. Can someone clarify ?

Thank you!

I have no idea why that blog says that. If you can find a more specific privacy issue, I'd take it seriously.

It is an idiotic claim. And the idiot misspelled my name.
