Works with individual conversations as well as group threads—a real versatile
beast. Uses a modified version of

[`unixpickle/fbmsgr`](https://github.com/unixpickle/fbmsgr) as the underlying
Messenger client. And, like all my CLI programs, written in

### Piping to `begone`
As of `v1.5.0`, it is possible to pipe from an external source to `begone`. This

## FAQ

### Will this steal my password?
No. Your password is sent directly to Facebook's servers, as if you were logging
in from [messenger.com](https://www.messenger.com) or from Facebook itself.

_But don't take my word for it!_
[See the code for yourself](https://github.com/stevenxie/fbmsgr/blob/27295a7d480147bdf80f88f01ac9d0fc4b4dffba/auth.go#L76).

### Will I get banned for using this?
Uhhhh I mean, don't use this too often (and don't leave it running for too long)
and you should be fine.

Just... play it safe-ish. Don't abuse this tool too much.
