Heya,
Everything has an illegal element to it nowadays; Lego was once just a torture device, then a toy, and now there are all sorts of illegal "builds" fracturing the community. Now, you can identify them all.
I also found some other stuff like anime-neoclassicism, an extension for messing with data tracking, Thanos, and the genuinely creepy things at Facebook.
Enjoy....

Zuckerberg's evolution into Bond villain gathers pace as Facebook's builds a mind-reader.

"The Connector" also has a secret escape passage in his office.
Sure it is...
If you ever find yourself in his office and he asks you to step a little to the left, then you best go right or you're going to fall into the piranha-crocodile pit.
At best.
His trapdoor probably gives way to a bottomless pit...And then what?
Just don't go into his office.
