A placebo that prevents 99% of unintentional or novice snooping is not a
placebo at all - it is a useful feature.
I would like to know what benefit you have by obstructing this "optional"
feature. Nobody is forced to use it, and those that would choose to use it
could be presented with a warning message before activating the feature.
Why are you so adament about hindering those that want this feature?
