Outline of Themes to Cover in the Coming Weeks

We're accelerating coverage and increasing focus on suppressed topics, such as the ones covered in disguised.work

As noted earlier today, we'll soon (re)publish factual material that illuminates causes of suicide in Debian, potentially holding people like Mark Shuttleworth accountable (as he would be in a "standard" workplace) for deaths.

Here's an outline of what's to come regarding the censorship of Pocock's Debian site and attempts to censor more sites of his: having covered domain-level censorship (DNS), we shall explore the subject some more. There's an ongoing WIPO case (WIPO UDRP D2024-077). In suicides-related coverage we'll remind readers why this coverage is both relevant and important. We won't editorialise the reposted material but express our own views/take separately. Later we'll deal with character assassination campaigns, which tend to complement the censorship (deterring people from reading certain people and/or sites) and we'll see after that what can be said in relation to the EPO, where many of the same tactics were leveraged against staff.

We will do many editorials to tie together the bits above. If it helps mitigate censorship attempts, then it is extra important. Remember that this is all about censorship and nothing else.

One reader asked, "but does [reposting] disguised.works have a specific result in mind with the series? There are a lot of message dumps but I'm having trouble seeing which dots to connect."

disguised.work or "Debian Disguised Work" deals with a number of themes and, if sorted and grouped into themes, they help show some darker area of the Free software community. Or rather, how it is being attacked by large corporations.

We can occasionally explain how these things relate to the EPO and sometimes how they relate to us. █
