Congrats on Godwin'ing the thread, though.
If you're building an entirely new product and can choose any name in the world - why would you choose one that had the remote potential to be misconstrued? Seems foolish, particularly in the current political climate where fervor is building over AI regulation and a huge chunk of our politicians are in the MAGA camp.
I've always thought QAnon's name was a reference to this character, but I don't care enough to confirm or deny.
Either way, the letter Q is more significant than the recent conspiracy theories.
Obviously it is not that, it permits one to access all classes of SNM and Restricted Data covered by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954.
But Q is just one letter no one can appropriate it.
Edit: actually, I phrased this poorly in reflection. It is good that everyone gets a vote, even people I disagree with. The unfortunate thing is the influence of online weirdness on people.
