Diseased Open Source Software Community - it's about ethics in Code of Conducts

[teriyakiburns]

While the feds may have just used that as a plausible alternative source for how they ultimately caught him, it is in fact plausible that opening fuckup was what doomed him.

They also like to leave open the possibility of their having access to cracks and compromises in these systems, as it makes them look more clever and discourages use of systems that they can't directly monitor. In the real world, they rely on social engineering to catch people. The human element always the weak link.

They did as the closer to this too. They used a girl and guy to pretend to be having a lover's quarrel to distract him while they snatched his open laptop.

Yet another case study on why GPL and other "copyleft" licenses are a giant meme.
Simple Mobile Tools, a collection of popular FOSS android apps which are licensed under GPL v3, got bought up by ZippoApps (archive) who are well known of having heavy reliance of ads on their apps.

F-droid already blocked autoupdates (archive) for it.

it's spelled Tor

Thanks for the heads up. I actually use this shit and it's really sad to hear this.

It will probably be forked with prejudice, and the shit company that bought it will only be able to capitalize on Play Store retards.

In British English it's Tour.

 

[Kendall Motor Oil]

Isn't TOR literally financed by glowies?

Like others have said, yes. The original(and maybe current) intent is for security assets to use it to anonymize their traffic. If more non-state actors use it then it obfuscates intelligence traffic coming out of that country/area.

Before I forget posting about this, a few days ago there was a massive sperging at offtopic channel of PostmarketOS on Matrix. Basically a based dude started saying "anti-government things" which terrified the members there.

Spoiler: Long

Therefore the user got banned for spreading "muh right wing conspiracies".

Spoiler

While the one of the guy on the chat was suggesting that politics wasn't allowed in the channel but actually, politics was indeed allowed for which they changed the topic of the channel to assert that even more. Unless, if it is "right wing politics" of course.

Spoiler

In fact, when one user questioned about the banning, he got bombarded by caleb (a linux mobile dev and an insufferable faggot who also deserves to have his own thread here) saying that "anti-progressive BS" isn't allowed. (Progressivists being a bunch of government bootlickers? My shock!)

Spoiler

So much so for allowing politics which "we don't agree with".

Clearly these people only care about their own retarded ideologies and want to silence the others who they don't agree with and yet they pretend otherwise. Sadly, they are infested in the FOSS community like roaches.

 

[Smoge]

Just wanted to mention this retardation, as he emailed to the FSF and prides on his movie being made with free and open source software.

A couple things I want to note about this:
- Every version released up to this point is licensed as GPLv3, meaning that only new versions can be closed-source, if that
- One of the lead devs on SMT has already forked it and intends to maintain the fork: https://github.com/FossifyOrg
- ZippoApps happens to be Israeli. I don't know why, but Israeli apps seem to be as shady as Chinese ones these days.

I assume Israeli laws make it difficult to prosecute any shady adware companies as long as they target foreign gentiles.

 

[UERISIMILITUDO]

I assume Israeli laws make it difficult to prosecure any shady adware companies as long as they target foreign gentiles.

Oh, so kind of like how pedophiles fuck a bunch of children and they're home safe so long as they get to Israel before the nation's police get them, right? Alternatively, that sounds exactly like what they accuse Russians of doing when they attack Our Democracy with malware.

The guy was a retard that didn't say anything coherent. He should be ban for being a retard. "How many people have not take the genetic reprogramming" should be bannable for retardation..

Jonathan Turner, the Rust developer who was one of the villains in the RustConf debacle a few months back (https://kiwifarms.net/threads/open-source-software-community.38130/page-157#post-16366982), has given into the inevitable and put on his programmer socks: https://www.sophiajt.com/becoming-sophia/, https://archive.is/Zr97J

One way I started doing this might sound a bit silly: every day, I turned my phone to selfie mode, looked at myself, and repeated "I love you" until I could feel something. At first, I just felt stupid, but I kept going because I knew that if I wasn't going to be my own advocate and my own support, I was just going to fall back into addiction and lose sight of actually trying to take care of myself.

I'm not entirely sure how to sign this email, as I don't know what my name will be. So, I'll sign it with a name that means one of my favorite things in the world: wisdom. Who knows, perhaps the name will stick.

Nothing says wisdom like irreversibly fucking up your endocrine system and making yourself utterly repulsive to everybody but other Rust programmers.
