Summary: The crimes committed by my last employer are becoming very apparent and crystal clear to see; meanwhile there are other crime victims coming out of the woodwork and we shall give them a voice, not just further information

THE Sirius 'Open Source' series is being followed closely by a lot of people. It's routinely mentioned in Techrights and Tux Machines, even my personal site for more important topics/aspects.



Many people are impacted by this issue, even if one person is more vocal about it (I'm fortunate to have a platform in which I can speak about this). For the sake of geeks, and for human/labour rights (or "tech rights"), we need to expose what happened in the company I knew from the inside for nearly 12 years. We have lots left to publish and plenty is still being investigated (several things are always being investigated in parallel).

"Maybe there will also be arrests, but that can take a long time."As the a video above notes upfront, I didn't expect to cover any criminal aspects, but while doing the first batch I stumbled upon anomalies and started contacting authorities, companies, former colleagues etc. It didn't take long to realise what sort of hydra we had all along dealt with; many workers were robbed and bullied, but the company threatened people not to speak about it with colleagues. Well, enough is enough and the 'dirty laundry' will come out. The world needs to see a workplace that isn't just toxic but also corrupt. Many insiders (back then) didn't realise the scale of the abuse, but they realised this afterwards or are coming to realise it now (with more facts being made publicly available). The company must have had several hundreds of workers over the years (if one counts associates and partners, maybe 300) and quite a few of them got burned. They're not alone anymore and accountability will be pursued. The CEO of the company ran away last month, but he too cannot hide. He's still in the UK, hiding in his 'tax shell' (registered at the address of the accountant). At the moment we explore all the legal avenues; exposing what was in the NDA (signed with the Gates Foundation when staff was compelled to sign a new contract in a likely illegal fashion) would be a cherry on the cake. Maybe there will also be arrests, but that can take a long time. That's OK. We have patience. The facts are on our side.
