You just seemed to be arguing that _any_ amount of risk would be too much
Unfortunately that's exactly the kind of thing I was talking about, extending arguments to ridiculous extremes.
I have never said any amount of risk would be too much. In this particular instance, I think the risk and the unknowns are clearly too much.
- Ajedi32 9y ago> In this particular instance, I think the risk and the unknowns are clearly too much. But why? I don't claim to know enough about RAPPOR to say for sure that the risk _is_ worth it, but it seems a little presumptuous to claim it isn't without knowing _anything_ about the project or Mozilla's proposed use of it. That's why I assumed you were arguing that _any_ amount of risk would be too much; you didn't include any sort of analysis of the risk/reward in your previous comments, and without knowing the risk the only way to conclude this feature is definitely _not_ worth it would be if you already considered the acceptable level of risk to be zero.
