Bullshit, dumbshit, what good is a message if it can not be "read or logged by anyone"?

Yeah, some of you are just assholes who attack decent, honest people
with *lies*.  Like "GreyCloud's" claimed that he was attacked because
he chooses to use Windows, or your claims that "mild criticism" of
Linux gets you called a "liar" and a "troll".

Out of the other side of your lying, hypocritical gobs, you attack
advocates who use Windows at work.

Correct. I forgot that it was the contacts rather than the message
itself. Of course, that's more or less as far as the NSA's reach
should go.

To kill time or get some intellectual challenge...  Linux is a good hobby choice for the Autistic and Asperger people who need challenging their brains or otherwise end up in a mental institution.

Yo apparently got other more important things to do or are too stupid to understand the computer internals...  Even the 66+ y old dumbass whacko can use Linux Mint these days so mental retardness is no excuse
