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.

	You must have missed the early part of the discussion; one of
 the proposals was to ship LILO with a password being required but not
 set, so that users could not get in until they edited the
 configuration. Given the large number of non-unix-guru types I see on
 debian-user, I thought this was fraught with problems.
