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.

But you haven't read the entire file.  If you look further:

"... encourages unrestricted distribution of patch files ..."

"If this software is modified for local use, please denote this on all
modified versions. . ."

Thus it seems to me that all we have to do is put an "L" on it.
