“If this “experiment” personally harmed you, I apologize.”
Real apologies don’t come with disclaimers!
Funny how he wrote "First,..." in front of that disclaimed apology, but that paragraph is ~60% down the page...

Just noticed, the first word of the whole text is "First, ...". So, the apology is not even the actual first..
Exactly.
“If…. X then I’m sorry” is not an apology. It’s weasel-worded BS is what it is.
Yeah, that whole post comes across as deflecting and minimizing the impact while admitting to obviously negligent actions which caused harm.
