Richard Stallman, he invented the GNU Projects stuff you might femilar in Linux like dd mv cp gcc cat GPL make bash...
He's also a pedophile.

Plenty countries place the age of consent at 15 years.
I get why you consider this pedophilia, but it's a bit iffy in my book. 14 years old is just one year younger than what many countries do not consider pedophilia.
Indeed we all agree that raping an adolescent will most likely mark them for life.
On the voluntary side it is a bit different to evaluate. I definitely do not think everyone over 14 should immediately take part in sex.
However I see nothing wrong with a 14 years old having sex with someone their age. On the other hand, having sex with someone older is not something I'd always condemn, but I would do that in many occasions. That is why in most cases the laws regarding age of consent strongly defend the minor.
The "half your age plus seven" social rule would imply that a 14 year old can engage with another 14 year old, and only that.
I feel that this rule would work better than the hard age limit that the world's legal systems have adopted, where the age delta isn't factored in.
My son is 15, and I told him it's half your age plus seven.
I'm confused by this social rule, never heard of it but doesn't really make too much sense when applied to a couple number.
10 -> 12 16 -> 15 20 -> 17 30 -> 22 50 -> 32
It only appears to work on the 14 years old case.
It starts at 14 because when you're 13 or less, there is no overlap at all. i.e. a (12/2)+7=13, but (13/2)+7=13.5, so they can't match. A 13 year old can't go as low as 12.
"With someone their age" is key. Why would an old man who wrote software be commenting publicly on kids exploring sex? There's no valid reason.
Such decisions are taken by adults, not by minors. Adults discuss their opinions and work out what is the consensus on a certain topic. Then adults get together and organize to change laws in such a way as to reflect that consensus.
No, I wrote quite a few more things in my reply.
