I haven't heard the rumor, but it wouldn't surprise me. The sad thing is
that reading about something and drawing a conclusion without ever
actually experiencing it doesn't lead to accurate conclusions.
The data they are using has been filtered and processed.
I hope our internet using ministers speak up to balance the argument.
