The Jqwik Anti-AI Affair 9 minute read TL;DR: The logging code I added to jqwik was never meant to work verbatim in the wild, and there is no evidence that it ever did. It was an act of self-defence, and I was following my personal moral judgement. It was meant to make an Anti-AI point and send the message to those who use coding agents: “Not everybody approves of what you do - and with good ethical reasons”. In that respect I fully achieved my mission, maybe a bit more than I intended. Prelude Due to the latest events this blog post will probably be read by many people outside my usual, rather limited audience. I therefore think that it’s worthwhile to give a bit of context about myself, where I’m coming from, and why this “escalation” is a logical consequence of my ethical stance.

Excerpt limited to ~120 words for fair-use compliance. The full article is at My Not So Private Tech Life.
