Axe In Door: Did u try restarting axe server?



Summary: The axe man Matthew J Garrett has done considerable harm and now he does illegal things; we intend to explain what he is and remind people what he did

THE childish man who attacked BSD and GNU/Linux users simply went too far. Not only does he troll/abuse/sabotage IRC and constantly defends Microsoft; he is the cause of "secure boot" letting Microsoft off the hook with the courts, he's doxing people, even threatening people (mentions of violence). He commits countless hate crimes, impersonates people, and resorts to all kinds of cybercrime. As noted in part II, he is a disgrace and a liability to the Tor network, which he is leveraging for illegal activities. But don't let the damaged mind (too much cocaine and other self-harming activities) distract you from the technical sabotage, the mass defamation, and shameless fabrications. This is the mind of a sick person whose career mostly boils down to promoting Microsoft's agenda inside companies and organisations which compete with Microsoft, coylu saying it's done for "security" (exactly the opposite) and protecting the vulnerable (he himself engages in racism, homophobia, ableism and worse things). The creepy thing is that some gullible people are still willing to take advice from him, probably because he disguises a lot of his true activities, painting a facade of professionalism while talking about how we wants to f* midgets and spreading Unabomber material online (glorifying terrorism).

"Don't be misled by "Colgate smiles" of people who poor-shame everybody while they themselves don't have running water (they're just projecting)."As noted here before, by means of entryism, defamation, mobbing, and blackmail Garrett made a career serving Microsoft while shrewdly pretending to be a tolerant, empathetic person. Nothing could be further from the truth and his sociopathic behaviour online is already brushed aside by those who refuse to accept facts or simply forget/distort facts (the Gell-Mann amnesia effect).

If you purchase or receive a PC and it won't even boot GNU/Linux (or BSD), then just remember who did this. The harms actually go much further than this and we'll constantly remind people of that. Don't be misled by "Colgate smiles" of people who poor-shame everybody while they themselves don't have running water (they're just projecting).

"We need to slaughter Novell before they get stronger….If you’re going to kill someone, there isn’t much reason to get all worked up about it and angry. You just pull the trigger. Any discussions beforehand are a waste of time. We need to smile at Novell while we pull the trigger."

--Jim Allchin, Microsoft's Platform Group Vice President
