I have now changed the memoji of Sangeeth. It is important to me that everyone is aware that the testimonials are all 100% real.

Thank you. I was trying to keep it understated, but it was the equivalent of seeing a Jewish-sounding name and depicting the person as a yarmulke-wearing Orthodox Jew without their consent. Anyone with a broadly shared cultural background as that user would get hung up on the incongruence (and many would mind being stereotyped) instead of focusing on your product. I don't blame you for not knowing that turbans are religious headwear, not fun hats people wear and take off on a whim as depicted in American media (which has greatly influenced global cultural stereotypes).

You are absolutely right. I really wasn't aware of it. And therefore I thank you very much for the hint. I am an open person and am therefore always happy when I can learn something new. Everyone should live as he wants. We are individuals and I think that's great. Best regards, Renato
