While I applaud your intention, I'd rather give to charities of my choice at times of my choosing.

Sounds like a fantastic idea, but alas I prefer to donate to domestic charities.

Could we donate to those who got attacked by anti-piracy "settlement" BS to pay for their court fees? Or something legitimately charitable?

Neat idea, Clyde!;)

This could be one of our surprises.

... charity can be applied to anything though really and Its just people wanting to help out in a slightly different way than a charity fare etc so really dont see how it is disgraceful

The whole point of making it a "public thing" is to encourage people to donate money for a worthy cause who otherwise might not do so.

I jumped out of an airplane and raised £500 ($770) for charity. I would not have been able to afford to donate that amount myself.
