Team Mono is on the Run

Summary: The so-called 'Team Mono' -- a collective of Microsoft operatives who use .NET as their Trojan horse inside GNU/Linux -- has gone into hiding, but it might be too late for them...

THE above video was recorded while I was extremely tired and I forgot to turn on noise removal, so the quality of audio is relatively poor (mostly background noise). Nevertheless, the video goes through the latest 'evidence tampering' by the Friedmans, who knew very well about the bad behaviour (including sick kinks and fetishes) of a GitHub manager, a longtime family friend who went too far by once again suffocating a woman, repeatedly too. Can't help himself, can he? Those horrific kinks and fetishes will be covered later in the series, but the key point is, the Friedmans and Miguel de Icaza knew all about these problems but chose to look the other way, even in recent years. Not too long before the arrest, Nat Friedman said that his longtime buddy had changed, in effect enabling his buddy to find more victims, whom he nearly killed. Friedman and he coordinated their attack on copyleft (by misusing "fair use" -- using "hey hi" (AI) hype as a workaround against copyright law) and even arranged for him a high-salary job at Microsoft. Is Microsoft still protecting him [1, 2]? Hard to tell, but this month he deleted his Microsoft LinkedIn and his Twitter accounts. Friedman deleted his Flickr account after more than 15 years, as we noted last night. These people are hiding.
