This is a very strange read. If that was posted on a random blog, I would have dismissed it. I didn’t know that that cell (anti tech bro, anti big tech, pro age verification laws) in the alignment chart is populated by actual people. And by intelligent people even.

Also the fact they call it “age verification” when they clearly build an identity verification and we just accept their language is crazy.

I am anti big tech, that's why I support the California digital age assurance act, it pre-empts things like persona by saying that a simple checkbox is age verification.

I have a feeling it splits by gender. I know a couple of professional programmers in that corner of the alignment chart, but they're not "bros".
