Yes, that was the thinking behind suppression of full development of
userboxes. Probably wise. But it still leaves us with underground
movements, some with governments behind them--Turkey China Israel and
doubtless more. And there are the professional, and amateur, public
relations people promoting commercial and religious products.

Actually, it is a miracle we do as well as we do.
