Comment (by Ipstenu):

 Oh the lawyer comment is for everyone who's going to grab my comments here
 and put them in ill-advised blog posts about proof... of something. ¯\_(ツ

 usage of "meta" unnecessarily

 Very valid! Unlikely, given the press and my personal experience with the
 quality of their legal team (whom I cannot fathom wouldn't have done the
 legwork to ensure this was okay). But thankfully super easy to roll back
 as you noted.
