Tbf I’ve put my birth year in my username before when I was a kid who knew next to nothing about privacy. I’ve seen other people do this too. So it’s not totally implausible. But yeah it is a bad look for Andy regardless.

It's one thing when you're a naive kid or a clueless boomer. It's quite another when you're the ceo of a privacy-focused company.
