8GB Swiss Archive offered to Irish voters by Dáil candidate

posted by Roy Schestowitz on Nov 29, 2024

Swiss women Pascale Koster and Albane de Ziegler at law firm Walder Wyss signed a document demanding that an open source software volunteer publish self-deprecating insults on his blog. Moreover, the rude women made this demand after the volunteer's father died. Mr Pocock doesn't take orders from cyberbullies like that. Instead of publishing the insults they wrote for him, he is publishing an 8GB archive from Switzerland for Irish voters to consider as they go to the polls tomorrow. The link is below.

By way of background, the volunteer Daniel Pocock is a highly respected Debian Developer. In 2017, on the anniversary of the Easter rising, the Free Software Fellowship elected Mr Pocock as their representative. Yet a subgroup of German and Swiss fellows became incredibly frustrated with Mr Pocock's success and attack him ever since then.

Mr Pocock made a number of blog posts exposing corruption and modern slavery when multinationals penetrate volunteer communities.

Two judicial processes have found that Mr Pocock and his family were victims of harassment. The Zurich black cat trial in 2018 gave Mr Pocock's family CHF 10,000 (equivalent to EUR 10,000) and the WeMakeFedora dispute in 2022 found Mr Pocock was a victim of harassment.

The multinationals failed to listen to these verdicts and keep throwing more and more money at corrupt lawyers and judges to attack volunteers.

Mr Pocock simply started writing blogs about the corrupt lawyers and judges, the Swiss JuristGate affair.

The racist lawyers Pascale Koster and Albane de Ziegler signed this document insisting that Mr Pocock publish self-deprecating insults after his father died. Instead, he is publishing the 8GB archive.

If people have concerns about what is in this 8GB archive, ask the racist Swiss women why they are lawyerstalking a volunteer after the death of his father.

Access the 8GB archive using IPFS

IPFS was used to share information about the referendum in Catalonia and it is being used again today to support Irish democracy.

Release of the encryption key on 5 December 2024

If you want this to happen, please Vote [1] Daniel POCOCK

If the Irish people choose to elect Mr Pocock to the Dáil, Mr Pocock will release the encryption key for the 8GB Swiss Archive on International Volunteer Day, 5 December 2024.

The opening of the archive, like the opening of a Christmas present, will be celebrated with ceremonies around Ireland and around the world. If you would like to organize an event in a local pub, community center or campus environment, please promote your event using whichever online platforms you prefer and use the words Debian Swiss Archive in the title of your event. People can use these keywords to search for events nearby.

Googlists undermining Mr Pocock's campaign

Google search results are wrongly suggesting that Mr Pocock was eliminated. In fact, no candidates have been eliminated. This is more proof that multinationals are interfering in our democracy.

Respect for volunteers

Mr Pocock has been doing voluntary work with amateur radio and free, open source software since he was 14 years old. Sinister people on social media who try to steal the reputation of a volunteer are stealing that person's life. Their gossip campaigns, theft of reputations are far worse than the sinister men who steal money from banks. Here is the certificate from Mr Pocock's amateur radio license, he started doing voluntary work when he was 14.

Vote [1] Daniel POCOCK

Please remember to discuss the Pocock campaign with your friends and promote it widely.

Mr Pocock's nomination page gives a lot of detail about his policies, unique skills and experience so you are voting for a lot more than what is hidden in this 8GB Swiss Archive.
