Summary: Demented and morbidly-obsessed lunatics with ties to Microsoft continue to harass Techrights people; unfortunately for them, they keep getting all their accounts banned (not by us but other IRC networks, Mastodon instances and so on) because it's rather obvious and clear even for outsiders to see what sort of lunatics they deal with

THIS past July we started a series that we estimated would last many weeks, possibly months. We finally got confirmatory evidence about IRC abuse that had gone on for nearly a year and included doxing. The series has since then expanded in scope and we expect it to last about 5 months. We also have some relevant legal documents to share and explain. Although we primarily (and at the start) focused on Matthew J Garrett, who attacked BSD and GNU/Linux users, he turns out to be part of a larger group of mentally-unstable, law-breaking lunatics. They do not work in isolation. They are connected to Microsoft and they attack other groups/people like vicious hyenas (examples of their attack tactics will be shown in the future).

"...they usually don't stop until they take their own lives."The video above talks about the latest incident and adds some background information. We really ought to build a social graph to explain the coordination of such activities because they work in groups, infecting communication channels to blackmail, intimidate, defame, and impersonate.

As an update on the matter, as explained in the video above, last night Libera.Chat banned (permanently) one of the militants for impersonation and extremism. The militant has since then moved to another network (Freenode); they usually don't stop until they take their own lives.
