THAT Red Hat hired its external PR people to work directly for Red Hat (from inside Red Hat) is no secret. We could name some of the people in question because they mailed us, first from E-mail addresses outside Red Hat and later from redhat.com addresses (after Red Hat had hired them). With new leadership comes another culture and IBM is an aggressive marketer, as we noted a decade ago and again several weeks ago. Master liars. Deniers. World-class cheats.

"With new leadership comes another culture and IBM is an aggressive marketer..."Shame on you, Red Hat. Even after unsubscribing (see screenshot, unsbscribing from something never subscribed to in the first place) they still spam today (E-mail from the morning shown at the top), much as predicted last week. Marketing people have no financial incentive to decrease the scale of their spamming operations.

Shame on IBM and shame on Red Hat, too. Red Hat should have remained an independent company, but in this 'G[I]AFAM' era there consolidation in 'tech' (grand scale of Pentagon-connected and sometimes Pentagon-funded oligopoly, optimised to serve 'Global Empire'). ⬆
