I posted my concerns about Monero privacy tech on twitter:

I’d encourage all Zcashers who talk about this issue, on twitter, here or where-ever, to demonstrate patience and “assuming the best of others”. If you start to assume the worst of someone you’re talking to, then just gracefully bow out of the conversation instead of accusing them. Let’s show 'em that the Zcash community has a higher standard of discourse than other have.
