I once knew a guy who received a blackmail email claiming they'd accessed his email account. He sent them pictures of his dick, balls and hairy butthole until they blocked him.

Does anyone have any tips on how I can do something similar with companies that breach my privacy. I worry that installing a blink camera under the seat of my toilet, so it can witness what a lack of fibre does to a mans lower intestine, wouldn't get the message through.

Or is this something I would be better taking up with the nearest US embassy or FBI field office?

carnists cannot go two paragraphs without mentioning their animal abuse but it's vegans who talk about it all the time...

A hit and a miss. Too much rice.

Thank you for bringing up that you're a vegan though.
