The same Alan Turing who was prosecuted and punished for his homosexuality after his amazing accomplishment, which was a crime in Britain at the time.

He was chemically castrated and stripped of his security clearances. It's widely believed he took his own life through arsenic, although him being poisoned wouldn't be a huge shock with the way he was treated.

Make sure to celebrate pride month a bit more for him. He deserves all the love
