You mean U.S. keyboards. Internet is global.

You can enter arbitrary characters easily on a US keyboard, English still doesn’t use quotes like that.

It’s a mistake nothing more.

He’a right, though. The comment was in English but used German-style quotations

I think they mean « Internet is global » to say that not everyone types English how you do. The bilingual CSA keyboard in Canada will type french guillemets instead of quotation marks if you accidentally look at it the wrong way.

Plus, what does「English」mean anyway! If people that speak English can understand you, as they say in the korean-quotation-mark-utilizing part of italian-new-york-city:《fuhgeddaboudit》.

Really hoping those characters survive the HN filter.
