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.

Please try the procedure and tell me if you think it's odious.
Use Netscape, and the URL
http://home.netscape.com/misc/registration/setup/certificate.html . It
essentially uses the credit bureau to verify your address and your
phone number. It does not look up your debts or anything obnoxious like
that.

There are alternate ways to do verify the identity of a maintainer,
such as having a number of people vouch for the maintainer, or using
the PGP web of trust. Using a basic certificate from a network
Certification Authority is probably the easiest and fastest way, but it
doesn't have to be the _only_ way.
