There are levels of anonymity. You can get private enough that only certain government agencies with well funded budgets and motivated agents can find you. That’s waaaay beyond what 99% of people need.
When a company says “we care about your privacy” what they mean is “we want to keep all your data for ourselves”
Also there’s a whole generation of people who never knew the early internet, when privacy was the default.
The problem is measuring the absolute amount of autism and not the amount of autism relative to the fan base.

Oooof that is some grade A copium.
I dare you to make a convincing business case for Facebook spending a single cent trying to capture a fraction of the second group, when it’s less than a percent the size of the first group.

And dare I add, DUH.
All of this is really obvious stuff that we’ve seen happen to hundreds of new technologies and small companies before. The idea that “no, it won’t happen to us, because reasons” is just sad.

Yeah but they think “racism” is “saying ‘colored’ instead of ‘African-American’”. Like they totally fail to grasp the severity of Deep South racism. They think hardcore racism is something that happened in the past, that we as a species have moved on from it, and surely (surely!) hysterical accounts like this are just gross exaggerations.
