Seems like a feature, not a bug. The only politics I care about from my tech products is whether they will collect/sell my personal data or not. Too many tech companies use a veneer of support for various political causes to take attention away from their own misdeeds. At this point it's a red flag when a company talks more about their politics than about their product.

Thus the quotes at the end are quite bad:

> people who really need anonymity are very rare. probably less than a 100 in the entire world. definitely not typical hKagi users (edited)

> unless they are criminals, in which case we don't care they don't have full anonymity (nor we want them as customers)

Women seeking abortions in the US weren't criminals two years ago and now, in some places, they are. I don't think he's thought about this position very carefully.
