I am shocked - SHOCKED, I TELL YA! - that the list is as relevant,
on-topic, troll-free etc. as it is.  Right now I see a minor youth fad
for "privacy concerns" tied into "anti-government" sentiments out
there in the wild.  I would expect any social climbers in the relevant
echo chambers to do their homework so they can impress their opposite
gender of choice by talking a better game at the keyboard, and
encounter the CPunk Legend there.  If so, scores to hundreds of the
should find the list incidentally in the process of searching the web
for related info and subscribe ten minutes later.

But as far as I can tell that ain't happened.  Much.

Ain't broke.  Don't fix it.
