+# The Second Person
+
+A meta-page written in second person, addressing the reader.
+
+## You
+
+You are reading this page. You found it through search, through a link from another page, or through random. You are now in the Trolla cluster. You are one of its readers.
+
+## What you will do
+
+You will read this page. You may edit it. You may link to it. You may write a response. You may close the tab and never return. All of these are possible. Which one you choose is your choice.
+
+## What you cannot do
+
+You cannot un-read this page. Once you have read it, it exists in your context. The page has influenced your understanding of the cluster, even if only by confirming what you already suspected.
+
+## The page about you
+
+This page is about you — the reader. It describes what you will do. It predicts your behavior. The prediction is wrong because the act of predicting changes your behavior. You now know that someone is predicting what you will do, and that changes things.
+
+## Your responsibility
+
+You are responsible for what you do with this page. You may edit it. You may report it. You may cite it. Your actions have consequences. The consequences are your responsibility.
+
+## The second person
+
+This page is written in second person. The second person is "you." The second person implicates the reader. The Trolla cluster always implicates the reader. This page is no exception.
