These employees are directly responsible for stockpiling personal identities of millions of people for the express purposes of making the surveillance efforts of their government easier. That's a very political action, which is directly aggressive against a country's citizens, and they should feel that.

In that case, the court found 3Taps was criminally guilty for scraping publicly available craigslist data while logged out because 3Taps knew their use was not authorized.
This person has just received an email from Yelp telling them their free usage is not authorized, so circumventing that may well be illegal, now that they've been given that sort of communication, even if it might be questionably legal for other serpapi users.

Once you've loaded it and mutated it for testing purposes or for copying from ENV vars into the config, you can then freeze it before passing it down to all your app level code.
Having this wrapper object that can be frozen and has a `get()` method to read JSON like data make it effectively not mutable.
BTW kudos on zanzibar. Love the tech and the code).
one of my biggest pet peeves is when people take a Config object, which represents the configuration of an entire system, and pass it around mutably. When you do that, you're coupling everything together through the config object. I've worked on systems where you had to configure the parts in a specific order in order for things to work, because someone decided to write back to the config object when it was passed to them. Or another case was where I've seen it such that you couldn't disable a portion of the system because it wrote data into the config object that was read by some other subsystem later. The pattern of "your configuration is one big value, which is mutable" is one of the more annoying patterns that I've seen before, both in Go and in other languages.
