This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

but that's a very consensual action, they literally have to ask you for those information not just start harvesting in the background

you don't fill out the information the apps are harvesting directly, it's way less consensual there than verbally filling a form
