Series parts:

  1. New Series: The End of Sirius Open Source
  2. Sirius Open Source Cannot Retain Staff and Clients (Many of the Remaining Ones Leave the Company)
  3. Police Out of Control (or Oversight) - Part 3: Action Fraud and Reports of Sirius Fraud
  4. Police Out of Control (or Oversight) - Part 4: The Pokémon Village of Sirius 'Open Source' and British Government
  5. YOU ARE HERE ☞ What's Left of the Company is a Skeleton Crew (While Police is Dragging Its Heels)


Summary: Today's part talks about what's left of Sirius 'Open Source'; about two thirds of the people listed in the "Meet The Team" page of Sirius 'Open Source' aren't there (some left years ago), the company is unable to recruit, and LinkedIn is linking the company to people who don't work (or barely ever work) for Sirius 'Open Source'

THE pension fraud at Sirius 'Open Source' is still being ignored by Action Fraud. This won't end well because Sirius 'Open Source' is connected to Action Fraud through its likely biggest client (if it's still a client at all). Are they waiting for the company to simply vanish as a legal entity with the word "LIMITED" added to its name, leaving the culprits off the hook? Because it would contribute to the perception that the police becomes an actual facilitator of the crime, for self-serving purposes at least.

"This cannot possibly end well unless the perpetrators are held accountable. All of them."We've meanwhile noticed that Sirius 'Open Source' makes itself look bigger than it really is. Here's an example:

 Sirius 'Open Source' senior engineer

Sirius 'Open Source' has maybe paid him for hundreds of hours of contract work over the past decade. That's a few dozens of hours per year. Don't be fooled by Microsoft's LinkedIn. It helps companies, not just people, craft a fictional image/perception of themselves.
