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.

There are patches from Dean Gaudet floating around that add setrlimit
commands to the daemon itself.

It's an open question as to whether they'll make it into the main-line
source, since dbj "suggests" that one should be using uspi-tcp and a
shell script calling ulimit as a wrapper.
