You are a nerd, you know that?
Almost nobody from my close circle knows about the konami code.
Usually the rickroll music plays when you enter the konami code, but I like to avoid cliches.

On taking bold stances (WordPress vs FLoC)
Google is known for wanting to know as much as possible data about its users so those pieces of information can be worth more when selling.
