This is interesting, given Automattic has one of the...weirdest views on free speech there is today.

Near-absolute free speech, within the means of the law, with really odd exceptions.

Ms Fan and Ms Leung say such harassment has also continued off campus. They have found pictures of themselves being shared on Chinese social media sites next to threatening messages. Ms Fan said one comment warned she would "face consequences".

If anyone's there, or knows someone who's there who happens to be protesting this, you should probably recommend they wear Winnie the Pooh merchandise, or wear t-shirts mentioning the Tiananmen Square protests, for their own personal safety. This has already gone too far, fighting fire by taking advantage of censorship your opponents are defending with violence is the most rational thing to do.

What's unique about us is you can see what app your colleagues are working in (e.g. VS Code, Google Docs, Figma), which gives you a surprisingly clear sense of whether you can interrupt them or not. In fact, we've found it makes you feel like you're sitting around a table, without being overly invasive.

This seems like it could be invasive. Is it opt out?
