The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

I can provide a USENET feed of my `chiark.mail.debian.*' groups to
whoever asks, provided that they're not going to feed them to major
backbone sites and get them widely propagated and that their local
users are relatively clueful.

These restrictions are needed because (a) my gateway is unidirectional
and (b) it leaves the mail headers in.

It probably doesn't work too well if you have another news-to-mail
version of these groups, either, since you'll find Message-ID's being
duplicated.

I won't feed my copy of debian-private to anyone, of course, but I do
have three or four Debian developers here who have access to
chiark.private.mail.debian.private.
