Kalcifer@sh.itjust.works 7 months agoJust the environment where the impersonations are theorized to take place — given the type of people who likely use the service, the ways people interract on the site, what the site is used for… imo, it seems unlikely that changing an “a” to a “4” is going to result in a damaging impersonation.
