    If it was identifying Lemmy users, it definitely would be. But, it’s a tool that reveals identities of a small, supposedly accountable group during real-life interactions, and we’re just mentioning it, so it seems like there’s at least an argument to allow it.

      Not supposedly, a group that is duty bound to be accountable.

        I think we all know the practice of that is a little hit-and-miss.

          It is only “hit” if you mean hit by a police car or bullet. There is zero accountability

            Well, that’s too far in the other direction. Zero is a very small number, and Derek Chauvin is in jail.

              lol, true. That is a rounding error though
