Without powerleveling, there's no way you couldn't hear someone hang themselves over the phone. The noise is fairly distinct, and while you might never stop hearing the music playing at the time when you close your eyes, that would NOT be the sound you remembered enough to mention in a letter -- unless you were a complete and utter sociopath.
It's not as bad as "you must give me control over who you have sex with" but back during the start of GG, I was on one of the leftyblogs pretty heavily, and they found my Twitter -- and that I followed Milo and a few other people. And they demanded the right to curate who followed me on twitter and who I followed. "You follow X Y and Z, they're very problematic. And A B and C follow YOU, they're even worse. Why haven't you blocked them?"
Their stance was that they had the right to determine who I associated with outside of the blog's comment section. Literally demanding I patch up the holes in the hugbox that I had created.
