1. Who do you think you are to start a personal website and post an FAQ like this?

   Someone who is capable of creating them but incapable of resisting the temptation. [2020-08-02]

   Answer until 2020-08-02: I simply think I am a normal person who get asked a lot of questions. Some of their answers turn out to be of general value, so I thought I could share it. For example, if somebody asks me which tools I use to develop this website, the answer is likely to be helpful for a wider audience. But if the question tends to be something like why don't you use Google Analytics on this website, the answer becomes not only helpful, but valuable. Not many sources discuss the ethical issues related to technology. I belong to the group of technology enthusiasts who value freedom, privacy, security and ethics more than mere usability and attractiveness. That's why I think I should share my answers.

2. Do people really ask these questions?

   Yes, given I'm also part of "people". [2020-08-02]

3. Can I use the question number to refer to a particular question in this page?

   Please don't refer to the question numbers; they are subject to change. You can either quote the actual question, or include a link to the question or this entire page.

4. How do you compile this FAQ?

   I write each question as an individual file and use my own scripts to compile them.

5. Will you share the scripts that you use to compile this FAQ?

   With pleasure. If you can't find them on nandakumar.co.in/software/, please write to me.
