It's iterative, additive at first, and then subtractive, often with parallel versions that diverge or converge.

It's an interesting question. I don't know which of those terms best describe my process. They're all new terms to me.

I wonder whether most of our friends even know how to move away from Google, delete/protect their data, etc. I've been getting some questions about some of the very basics, so I wonder... Do you have any good references, recommendations, etc?

I agree. I'm really just playing around, here. It's a beautiful sentiment and I don't mean to malign it in any way.

A statement that contradicts itself is paradoxical, by definition, not by force.

It's paradoxical though, if the attribution isn't true, then the statement doesn't pass its own first rule.

It doesn't ask "is it true or if not that's okay if there are good intentions" -- it asks "is it true".
