@whitequark I do hope that's something that you don't find deranged, as you say; I value your opinion and expertise in general and on this stuff in particular. Whether you do find it deranged or not, though, that's more or less where I'm coming from?
I think tech as an industry (and yes, that includes my own time in such) has normalized a degree of nonconsentual experimentation that's now causing huge problems.
