Maybe I should at least reserve my real name on it…

Nope, don’t care that much.

I'm in two minds about that. One the one hand, yes, of course - as all the original COBOL folks die off, the skills will be even rarer and thus worth more.

On the other hand, if we keep propping up old shit, the businesses will keep relying on it and it'll be even more painful when they do eventually get forced to migrate off it.

On the other other hand, we know it works, and we don't want to migrate everything into a series of Electron apps just because that's popular at the moment.

Yes. The answer to this isn't to restrict what the NSA can do, the answer is to stop people's privacy being a legally tradable commodity.
