      Uh, you are almost certainly thinking of someone else. The 1853 that Katie mentioned was a reference to Alfred Hobbs, a Victorian locksmith who wrote about vulnerability disclosure. Perhaps you're thinking of Thomas Hobbes?

      I think he's pretty interesting, but the point was that the discussion hasn't changed in 150 years. If we were to change "hackers" to "rogues", he would have understood tweets from yesterday 😆

      The discussion hasn’t changed at all? So the people that discuss the idea of a restricted system are operating on the exact same principles and context that they were the last time it became a big debate?

      There’s never been improvements for the industry as a result of hashing things like the OST debate out?

      Sure, a century ago when the problem was new and these ideas were being explored for the first time. Does having the same debate every few weeks improve things? If you think so, be my guest, but I don't think it does, and they're so repetitive that I'm tired of them 🤷🏻‍♂️

      I’m genuinely curious how you’re forced to participate? Surely you ignore many popular things in your timeline.

      I don’t want to dismiss how much it may impact you, but I’ve been involved in this community for years have learned *a lot* from the most recent discussion. I personally never seen it taken to such a degree. It has been incredibly helpful for me.

      So you’d like to use your influence to dismiss the discussion as useless? That’s not an unfair take. If you really think nobody benefits and want to put your name behind that, I think that’s commendable.
