Everyone has known this forever. The LGBT community has pressured him to openly announce it. He didn't have a choice.
Who cares? Smart, successful, and by all accounts very good guy.
I think bringing more attention to this is counter-productive. Treat shite like this as a non-issue and it becomes one. Its like reverse-racism being counter-productive to the end goal of black people who want equal treatment.
I will add there is obviously a time and place to stand on the pulpit and demand equality, but this doesn't seem like one of them.

It is pretty odd that someone can pressure another individual to tell the public what kind of genitals he prefers, and it's not only acceptable, but also considered a victory. Or the fact that this information will actually affect a technology company's revenue or stakeholders in some way, even if the impact is negligible.
