I am so conflicted on which side should I be on :/

A rough translation of a brazilian quote for you: "In a fight between these guys, I cheer for the fight".

How is it hard to root for the anonymity of people? This is pretty cut-and-dry.

I'm glad Reddit won here because it sets a precedent that will protect less well-funded Lemmy instances.
