Techrights Will Tell the Story (Until Next Year!) of How Since 2022 It Has Been Under a Coordinated Attack by a Horde of Vandals and Nutcases
LIKE we promised months ago, we're going to properly document what started to happen here about a year ago. That's connected to what happened to my wife and I -- both of us were targeted. It's also connected to our decision to leave our job and my wife's decision to write detailed articles.
At the moment the online presence of Matthew J Garrett, who attacked BSD and GNU/Linux users, is broken/offline. It has been offline for many hours and it's starting to look like another "emotional rollercoaster". The toadies and flunkies of Garrett are impersonating people and breaking laws in all sorts of networks while facing many bans, terminations, then attempts to ban-evade. We're not dealing with a conventional foe here; these are complete and utter nutcases. They not only waste time, they vandalise everything around them, then yelling "you're a transphobe" at those who catch them breaking the law. People like these belong in handcuffs and behind bars (sometimes they are) and our readers still deserve to know the full story. It's a cautionary tale for other groups and sites. █
