Not really. If you take their rhetoric at face value ("Think of the children") then sure, it undermines everyone's data protection.

I will go as far as to assume that no one on HN believes this is done for the children. It's been done to censor people and ID the majority of normies online. And when you think of this, the undermining of everyone's data protection is note an undesired side effect, it's the goal.
