I can't even keep count of the number of times I and others on the
Infra team get requests to redact passwords or similar sensitive
information from our published IRC logs. Across a community the size
of ours it's a pretty frequent occurrence (and of course we have to
remind them that there's not a lot of point since we can't scrub
anything from everyone's personal channel buffers/logs anyway).
