@weirdwriter It feels like how Bandaid is how sticking plasters are called, but worse as it controls access to people. Or how people don't see the internet, they see Facebook and Google and that's all they see. Walled gardens getting walled-ier.

BTW the footer on your site has a link to https://robertkingett.com/?author=1 which triggers a 'ShieldSecurity' warning (at least for me). If you're the only author on the site, you don't need the ?author=1 thing.
