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.

	Have you even read the DFSG? and our social contract?

	That happens not to be the case.

	So you have a different goal than Debian. (Which is fine).

	The you do not agree with the goals of the project. But this
 is quite contrary to Debian's goals, (We ratified the social contract
 with unanimity, if I recall correctly).

 On Krat's main screen appeared the holo image of a man, and several
 dolphins. From the man's shape, Krat could tell it was a female,
 probably their leader. "...stupid creatures unworthy of the name
 `sophonts.'  Foolish, pre-sentient upspring of errant masters.  We
 slip away from all your armed might, laughing at your clumsiness!  We
 slip away as we always will, you pathetic creatures. And now that we
 have a real head start, you'll never catch us!  What better proof
 that the Progenitors favor not you, but us!  What better proof..."
 The taunt went on.  Krat listened, enraged, yet at the same time
 savoring the artistry of it.  These men are better than I'd thought.
 Their insults are wordy and overblown, but they have talent.  They
 deserve honorable, slow deaths. David Brin, _Startide Rising_
