Summary: Balabhadra (Alex) Graveley has warrant for his arrest, albeit only after a lot of harm and damage had already been done (to multiple people) and Microsoft started paying him

IN THE LAST part we recalled "Team Mono" as we looked back at the origins of a high school drop-out-turned-Mono-booster and now GPL violations booster. What we need to deal with now is a lot worse than Mono, and it comes under the GitHub/Microsoft umbrella directly. it's a war on copyleft, weaponising the userbase Microsoft acquired from GitHub before a lot of staff fled (especially around the time ICE scandals had come to the surface). GitHub is in a bad shape, there are internal scandals, but Microsoft doesn't the public to find out. GitHub has managed to spike some articles or "kill" some stories earlier this year -- a subject we'll come to later in this series.

In the meantime, the latest news is that less than a month after Microsoft's 'Friedman cull' the person who considers him his "best friend" has been put on the list to be arrested (local copy). That person is responsible for Tomboy (Mono infection inside GNU/Linux) and Copilot (an attack on the GPL/copyleft). Stay tuned; lots more to come.
