Escalating Crimes of Sirius 'Open Source' All the Way Up to the Government (After Police Refused or Failed to Deal With the Matter)

Summary: The crimes of Sirius 'Open Source' are believed to be investigated right now, but it is important to note just how much effort is required -- even some connections -- to get things rolling and actually get law enforcers to do their job rather than send bot messages acknowledging the receipt of something never handled by an actual person

THE video above is an outline or an overview of some recent developments in the quest to hold Sirius 'Open Source' management accountable for very serious crimes. The clients included very high-profile government departments, so we don't expect this to be easy. Generally speaking, the government tends to protect itself from accountability or from 'embarrassment', perhaps even prosecution and jail time. In this case, there are many victims and they're GNU/Linux system administrators, sometimes programmers too. We expect this series to last until the end of the year, maybe even next year, judging by how slowly "the system" is moving, both by intention and by design. We'll document the failings and the shortcomings of this system. We've seen similar things in the EU when it comes to EPO corruption.
