Yeah, so I have a paranoid (or maybe not) idea that somewhere in 2012 my classmates and teachers played a prank.
That they were insulted by what I said, and decided to check my words (on Silicon Valley people being more noble than Russian elite class). I thought I was talking to them, but they in fact were recording, translating and sending my words to some of those Silicon Valley people (very improbably high-level). And things pretty normal for me to say as almost a compliment (on democracy and meritocracy and freedom and on racism being bad, and MOST of all - on my privacy being more important than their dreams) insulted those people so much that I've got a lot of such privacy invasions. So - that in the end, eh, someone of said elite class solved the problem by wasting one of those Silicon Valley people (there was the added insult of that someone being blamed for the thing).
Dunno how to check and whether I should, cause if it happened, I don't have a nuke.
