> send nudes

Unless this is a synecdoche for something else, I'm not worried about it. Computers can sneeze out superficial 2D digital reproductions of women for less than a dime a dozen.

Real, live people are so much more interesting to interact with on that level. For that, we meet through public institutions (aka "pubs", eg bars/clubs/churches/schools) as members of a society.

I'm just saying that if you're some kind of renegade evading authoritarian surveillance, you probably recognize that life is too short to spend engaging oxytocin production over some pixels.

This reads like a combo of Mr Logic and Major Misunderstanding, from the Viz comic.

When was the last time you met someone in the pub?

ie churches/schools? Constantly. Frequently. Several times a week.
This felt like what an LLM, trained on hackernews data, would output if someone used as prompt "Give me the most stereotypical comment about sending nudes to woman that a hackernews user would write"
You should recalibrate your LLM detector, then.
