The context was surveillance without consent. Not service with consent. It is not certain they meant their proposal in this context. But it is plausible.

Users reminding other users of the guidelines is common here. I will stop if a moderator says to stop. Your complaint is your problem otherwise.

Does MUST NOT in RFCs mean must not ever? Or in the context of the RFCs?


Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize.
