Poor Troy Hunt is going to need to employ a team of minions (or at the very least agents).

I don’t think they said that it was.

“They” is a very, very widely accepted gender-neutral fallback pronoun, acceptably used even in cases where the subject may not “identify as a they/them” or whatever phraseology has got you perturbed. Software developers should be especially aware of this as this makes writing user-facing content much easier. Any disagreement with this is almost certainly some sort of culture war issue, at best wrapped with a thin guide of “caring about proper English”. But thanks anyway.

I am certain that many people will have signed up with an email address that contains their real name. If this leaks I’ve gotta imagine that someone with a particularly dark/evil sense of honour makes a tool where you enter an email address and are shown an AO3 presence.

Is this like when people say “it’s not that hard to write memory-safe C”, and then nobody does? I take this as actually meaning: “I feel that I can keep my shit locked down.”. Whether or not that’s true, which i’m skeptical of, plenty of OTHER people can’t, or won’t, or whatever. That’s the reality.

To speak to your edit: this is false equivalency. You can still decrease the odds of being hit. There are still better and worse ways to address security.

This is tech startup brain rotting on display. People aren’t allowed to just make things anymore.

You know damn well that different people like different things. Very Brian Griffin comment.

You think that you do, like I thought that I did, but I doubt that you want it in reality. Last I checked, which was probably under a decade ago(?), there were a bunch of things on macOS that misbehave on a case-sensitive FS, both first- and third-party. I reinstalled same-day.
