No one said that. But if you are willing to endanger other people's rights and lives even further because it might economically benefit your already rather privileged ass, you deserve to be called out for that, and reminded that your customers might not all be as willfully ignorant and self-absorbed.
US-style individualism "fuck you I got mine and yours and then some" is a cancer on society.
You're missing the point. Andy Yen's point of view about the subject is that of a privacy advocate. Him seeing something being done to stop the bleeding of private data and commenting on that particular subject says absolutely nothing of his other political opinions. If the Democrats would have picked someone like that in that position, then likely he would have commended it too.
Unless he's a hypocrite too, but i would rather give benefit of the doubt since (can't believe i have to say this) we're just two randoms talking on the internet about a guy that none of us will, or have ever met.
