Wow. Am I misunderstanding you guys/girls?

Now of course we know this chat service will not really be anonymous as far as those offering the service are concerned (Zuck will know), but what are YOU two doing here under pseudonyms if these are your responses to hearing a company is offering a way to speak to one another under random names? Why the incredible hostility towards private conversation?

What Beholder Agency do you work for?

Anon chat has been around since the 90's, because its Facebook everyones wants to make a noise?

Anonymous until I find myself surrounded by police.

And not just a noise, but an antagonistic noise, as though it were a bad idea.

Do not wish upon thy neighbours that they may not speak alone...

Beat me to it.

They might as well just be honest and call it a dating site for kids and old men.
