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 think if this happened, I'd leave Debian for another system.  You listen.
Ian listens.  Most people here listen.  It may be a bit too "rule-by-committee"
sometimes, but I can live with that.

>From what I have observed and heard about RMS, he _never_ listens.  Right
now, I'm basing my company around Debian.  If Richard were to decide on
some change, then my company could lose weeks in reorganizing.  That means
death to a start-up and significant pain to an established company.  I can't
risk that.
