OK... Privacy (policy) being specious

1.apparently good or right though lacking real merit; superficially  
pleasing or plausible: specious arguments.
2.pleasing to the eye but deceptive.
3.Obsolete. pleasing to the eye; fair.

Fast. Nearly real-time.

Speak, pause, continue, pause, tap to edit.

That last part is very nice and quite Newtontuitive. Tap the wrong word 
(s) and it gives a list of other <real> interpretations that usually  
contains a correct option. Two taps to get it in the clipboard and you  
have a very nice paragraph or two.
