Larry: Being in favor of a "core value" is cheap because it doesn't
require anything of you.  Personally I value world peace.  If some
people who generally wouldn't know how to work on anything you think
is urgent want to make privacy more possible in the Internet, what
does it cost you? It can only be a zero-sum game if resources are in
the same pool.
