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.

This is just an neccesary as saying every pc disk utility program needs a 
big warning.  They'll kill an fat32 system faster than a linux system 
will.  However, it probably should be noted somewhere, if Microsoft 
dosen't note it anywhere in the installation.
