- btown 5y agoThanks for pointing this out, and I'm so sorry. My original text without styling, for what it's worth, is the three sentences that follow: > Do not allow anything LGBTQ+ related to be a topic unless it's opt-in. People live in unpredictably unsafe places. People will die. I try to write in an accessible way generally, but in this specific case I wanted a message that would stand out visually to sighted people, because they are the most likely (probabilistically) to be both the group leading this project at Google, and also the group who might have not thought about how their technical choices can impact people with diverse backgrounds. I definitely tripped over the trolley problem here, and I sincerely apologize for hurting you.
