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

[Ratboy Genius]

If anyone wanted to read the original complaint filed against Jeremy Bicha, and the transcripts of direct examination of the victims plus his family and Jeremy himself, I attached them. You can find these on the Manatee County website just searching his name.
His sisters says some pretty brutal stuff

Does anyone else ever come across a KF post that makes you actually cry? Like tears welling up and all

 

[Rekeita's Kidneys]

He has the "correct" politics for his municipality. He savagely raped his sister, ruining her life, but at least he wasn't racist.

And then, for absolutely no reason at all, Adolf Hitler rose to power.

 

[HarveyMCR]

So Canonical replied to Lunduke. Long story short, Jeremy Bicha disclosed his criminal record upon hire. Canonical always knew he was a serial child molester. Canonical implies that this is okay since it wasn't a computer or fraud related crime. Ignoring the liability of having a registered sex offender represent your company, especially at conferences, which are a big part of being a professional FOSS person. Crazy.

I can't even, the edit: Imagine all the times we've heard about how political opinions create unsafe work environments, but not a chomo? Come on. Would you leave your kid, or really anyone with that guy? Of fucking course not. Chomos are constant re-offenders. Chomos get out and immediately run out to a park to molest a kid, happens all the fucking time. No mental gymnastics needed, everyone instinctively understands this guy needs constant direct supervision because if you relax he might just try to rape you with a dildo. That's not a safe workplace, sorry. What is your HR team doing? This is lawsuit fuel. It's perfectly reasonable to feel unsafe around a serial child molester, and juries would agree.

Researching him, something interesting that I've found is that his address listed on the state registry doesn't appear on the aggregated maps of FL predators.

STATE REGISTRY


AGGREGATED MAPS

https://data.floridatoday.com/sex-offenders/manatee/

None of the surrounding blue dots are him. I wonder if he somehow paid to be removed from this map? Anyone know if I have an old address?

 

[Nozo-miko]

Meanwhile, child rapist Jeremy Bicha, who committed actual sadistic sexual abuse on his sisters (you know, didn't just say autistic words like Stallman), just gets to be paid by Canonical and nobody in open source gives a shit, they all turn a blind eye.

Not only that, I found out that he was among the people who signed the infamous RMS petition too.

This is hilarious in hindsight, especially considering how many of these people puts more importance on fictional characters rather than irl victims.

 

[Frederica Bernkastel]

Not only that, it is publicly known that there are children and teenagers within the Ubuntu community which contributes actively to Ubuntu and related projects, same with GNOME, and they're allowing a convicted child sex offender working near them.

Which is why its VERY fucking stupid to say you don't care about this guy being a contributor. It';s one thing to just drop code; its another to be embed in the open source community when many of them are minors. Just imagine this freak joining open source Matrix/Discord/IRC servers. Is hiring this dude really worth the risk?

It is if supporting pedophiles as a "protected minority" is part of your fundamentalist leftoid ideology. They literally worship pedophiles. Never allow any of these "people" anywhere near children, because they think having a public figure who sadistically raped children THOUSANDS OF TIMES as their face to the public is totally okay.

Jeremy joined the navy.

Ok, getting the tinfoil hat out...

Canonical and RedHat both make deals with the US government and offer "Confirmed Stateside Support" where they guarantee three letter agencies and government customers, that all their employees they communicate with have security clearance and nothing leaves the USA. Like the NSA servers running xkeyscore, are on RHEL and maintained by RedHat.
Since Jeremy was in the Navy, it's likely that he got his clearances for free in a support role.

His biography hints on it as well:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JeremyBicha

I am a United States Navy Veteran and spent 2007-2010 living in Bahrain.

https://jeremy.bicha.net/about-me/

Ubuntu user since 2006

Now we check what is in Bahrain that might be related:

Navy warfighting networks and communications systems necessary for U.S. Naval, Joint, NATO and coalition commanders to conduct secure command and control

Jeremy Bicha being glowfag-adjascent would explain the weird non-responses we witness. We do not get any actual defense of his behavior or pivoting sperg-out blog posts. Like i would expect from the people we are dealing here, just look at this dude.

The non-response we get is reminiscent to "I didn't get an official narrative yet so i don't know how to respond" which i did see very often in completely unrelated shill-infested subjects when glowfags were involved.
The longer it is being memory holed, the more i think that Canoncial and GNOME are simply not able to get rid of him, because of his glowfag connections.

From their interests, as epic internet warriors against nazis, it would definitely be better to just get rid of him and move on. Being connected to a child rapist and torturer, isn't going to help them. Cutting that connection would be the best course of action from their perspective.
How they act, isn't logical.

Edit:

Jeremy also lives just over 1h away from MacDill Air Force base.

The MacDill AirForce base houses the DISA Central Field Command, a regional field command of the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA).

The DISA gives out guidelines of software to use, and works with Canonical:

You're reading too much into this. There will be no public defence because it'd be suicide for Canonical to do so - he is literally a convicted pedophile. Remember, Canonical already said he hasn't done anything wrong and even though this appears absolutely ludicrous to anyone able to simply google his name - it's pretty much standard fare for larger tech companies today.
They're obviously not going to fire him either unless this story gets picked up by mainstream tech news like the register (etc) and Canonical get pressured into doing something. Realistically the best outcome that could be expected* is that jeremy will be suspended with pay for a month or three, then quietly let go at the end. The smart money though is on Canonical simply waiting for this all to blow over and nothing will change.

*the best outcome is obviously a woodchipper

The best course of action from Canonicals and GNOMEs perspective would be to pay him off to leave.

If Jeremy himself declares "I left Canonical and GNOME for totally unrelated reasons by myself", they are all fine. Then GNOME and Canonical can just declare: "He left, so there is nothing for us to look into".
Nobody has to judge. Nobody has to do anything. You can keep fighting your internet war against nazis.

Canonical replied with an: "well, he served his time " and all the others are completely silent and hide in a hole.
This is not logical.

Jeremy having clearance and working for DISA, which officially works with Canonical, and is located just over an hour away from his home, is more reasonable to me.

 

[skunt]

This is not logical.

This is big tech in 2025. I can assure you if you ask anyone that's worked in the sector, Canonicals reaction isn't really surprising at all.
In fact the only thing that's surprising is that they responded at all, especially to Lunduke.

(i edited my post a bit while you were replying, i don't think it mattered though).

What I'll never get about these far-left chomos is their constant necessity to stand out, like this fucker should be thanking god he managed to get a job like this in the middle of a techpocalypse despite being a fucking child rapist and instead of STFU and laying low he goes full retard bringing attention to his pedo past.

 

[Darkholme's Dungeon]

Just a little tiny request and not a demand: please spoiler descriptive stuff in the future. I get why you shared it and why it's a problem I just personally would've preferred to have not read those details.

Sorry, I forgot how desensitized I was to this shit as an EMS vol. I'll make sure to spoiler it next time.

Yup, and never forget that ideological witch hunts (down to the open use of terms like "purge") for people merely hiding the wrong opinions is an OS industry standard now as well... this is the state of open source. What happens when people don't gatekeep. What strong/hard libertarian ideals lead to in the end. (and before anyone says anything.. remember that the lib party nominated a guy with an agenda and ad blitz full of rainbows and letter people talking points in 2024)

No, it was NEVER "political opinions create unsafe work environments", it was "incorrect political opinions create unsafe work environments". Remember that these are the same ghouls and activists who smugly preach (regurgitate) "everything is political" at the mere hint of the non political or aspirations of neutrality. Remember the crying when that tech company said "no politics at work" 3 or 4 years ago?

Is it really THAT hard to shut the fuck up?
Bicha is extra bad due to his sexual predator crimes (that he got caught for) and should really be dead for them, miracle he is walking the streets.

Being far left is irrelevant when he just sounds like a terrible person to be around in all areas.

I swear, everyone who constantly says things like "everything is political" always turns out to be a horrible person.

Love how FOSS has become more about useless politics rage then actually making good software.
There shouldn't even be a "correct" political opinion in FOSS. Sadly a bunch of retards have decided to define it based on sheer quantity alone.

I find it funny when grifters like Lunduke make lists of "non woke" software to use like its actually important.
Caring about the politics of people who make your software is about as relevant as their favourite colour. Whatever happened to using the best software for your use case?

 

[i440BX]

I slightly disagree. Yes, he is weird with his huge amount of praise for Israel and fighting anti-semites. But many things he has presented, made videos about are pretty much useful, proven to be true.

Indeed, I am nowhere as extremist regarding "non-woke" software. I still use stuff made by woketards like Notepad++ / KDE software / EndeavourOS (even though my next install might be Artix) / Firefox (the best option for adblocking).

I understand the 'tism is a factor here but Open Source and Linux in 2025 is not a meritocracy about great code.

It amounts to digital control at a state level. The mega-wealthy have/will take control of open source and the linux foundation behalf of the state. And the best way for glowies and their letter agencies to insert themselves into your 'meritorious' superiorly coded ultra-secure codebase that is running everything important is to use compromised people who are unemployable everywhere else except in open source projects due to their criminal histories and appetities.

When it comes to money and power, as with organizations like Red Hat that call for the white people who created and invented everything therein to be viciously disposssesed from Red Hat and IBM ASAP; It's always about politics when money and power is involved, you clueless fucking sperg.

 

[YOU ARE]

Indeed, I am nowhere as extremist regarding "non-woke" software

None of this would have happened if we just judged software and contributions on their merits and not on the contributors ideology. This whole debacle started because half of F(L)OSS doesn't want to become a "Nazi bar" while also being receptive to platforming pedophiles. On boot-up Vim asks you to donate to Uganda. Devuan is maintained by the Dyne foundation, who loves diversity and their "bastard culture". Hyprland is the most popular Wayland manager and yet it was created and is spearheaded by a Polack who loves his elf hentai a bit too much. However none of this matters. What matters is that the software is good and technically sound, and so people use it.

Instead now we see people forking software because "muh transphobia", projects being directly sabotaged to facilitate "the future". Tribalism like never before: "Rewrite it in Rust" and "Add build.zig" come to mind. "Community Managers" and their "communities". The idea of "building communities" around specific pieces software is so retarded. Just make a mailing list or a forum at most and be done with it.

Remember when this was about software? Even at its worst it used to be that you would live and let live. You would create a fork, not sabotage your "opponent"s code and repositories. Now everything is so fake and so gay.
