I occasionally read another forum that's on Quora.  I considered
replying to a thread, but then I saw that button labeled "Do not
sell my data."  That means that if you forget - even once - to
click on that button while replying, whatever personal data you
give them is theirs to do whatever they want with.  There's no
way in hell I'll ever register on such a forum - they'll just
have to do without my pearls of wisdom.
