Lol! The no way round it defense. I'll have to remember that.

If they were honest about their intentions most people would say no or demand payment for providing something of value.
That would be good. A YC company is paying people to do just this. You know the data is being uploaded, so you can avoid e.g. your kids coming into frame.
