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.

Thanks for the info (I'd ask how you find out these things, but then you
would have to kill me, right?).

I don't know whether to laugh or cry that another buffer overflow bug has been
found...

It shouldn't be hard to fix this problem but it requires installation of
a new libc.  Perhaps rlogin and other SUID programs should be statically
linked to facilitate replacing them independent of the remainder of the
system.
