All things being equal, and in a perfect world where volunteers have piles
of time to attend to even the smallest tasks... I would say that
“respecting the user” means respecting their privacy.

Which is to say that privacy is a default requirement with justification
required for removing it.

But the world is not perfect and volunteers do not have time to cover every
base perfectly.

I congratulate you guys on delivering a consistent product that gives a
great deal of value to a large community. Thank you!
