Please go over this topic if you can. There is supposedly a rise in argumentative behaviors and defeatist attitudes throughout the forum. Some people speculate that this is a targeted attack.
Firstly, please go over your perspectives as members of the Privacy Guides team. Have you or anyone else on the team observed this rise in disruptive behaviors and attitudes?
Secondly, what are your thoughts on the opinion that this is a targeted attack? I think it is clearly speculation, armchair theorizing, conspiratorial thinking, or whatever word you want to use. We cannot know without actual investigation, and the only people who can reliably do that investigation is the Privacy Guides team themselves since they are the ones who have the data of forum users.
Thirdly, if you do (a) see an observable rise in disruptive behaviors and attitudes that the post espouses and (b) attribute that observation to a group of people intentionally and cooperatively working together, would you be willing to use collected user data to counteract it? How would you go about doing it if you did?
