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.

Debian executables are not built for debugging - for example we don't have
the "-g" debugging symbols on them, to avoid creating bloated systems for
our users. One would expect a daemon that is being debugged to be built for
debugging, and to have its UID and GID changing disabled during that process.

One can also run an executable within the debugger and avoid core dumps
entirely.

	Thanks
