I’ll highjack this comment to add my opinion - I wasn’t sure if it was appropriate for the main post.

I see the profile picture as performative, and I usually avoid things like this out of caution; I don’t want to fall into a habit of doing something performative and feeling like that was enough action. I also recognize Clippy is a flawed choice, as one of Microsoft’s mascots and it’s existence as a proto-AI assistant.

All of that said, I found the solidarity in the comment section of the original video comforting. So today, I will perform (and maybe spread just a little more awareness).
