Let's reinvent the fucking scrollbar, which every goddamn platform with a UI already has, and make it behave subtly different from the native one!

Right-click a native scrollbar in some other app:
- Scroll Here
- Top
- Bottom
- Page Up
- Page Down
- Scroll Up
- Scroll Down

Right-click a scrollbar in Chrome:
- Back
- Forward
- Reload
- Save As...
...

Right-click a scrollbar in Firefox and Opera:
Absolutely fucking nothing happens!

What the fuck!? How did these terminally retarded idiots get involved in creating one of the most important pieces of software to the average user?

Yes. Any material about yourself online can be viewed and interpreted.
Just how odd is your programming style?

See the attempts on Satoshi (bitcoin)
Precisely, nobody's been able to do shit. If pretty much the entire world is busting their ass trying to uncover an anonymous programmer, why do you think a couple of faggots trying to uncover your identity through a browser will do any better?

Coding conventions like spacing and variable names are also an issue
Unless you do stupid shit like Nigger_Dicks-In_my_anus, there are at most four major variable naming schemes, namely FaggotCase, ngrvar, faggot_var or smug-var. Great, they just reduced the search space to 25% of all programmers, which is still a fuckton.
