Heh. Well, I don’t know. They started threads about me in Slashdot too. Libel too. They used to try this in BN.com, but I can stop it (although I never delete comments). They just flooded the site when I was on vacation, IIRC. |

I did increase the max x-post up to 6, but in my experience, it’s just tending to show more of Gary Stewart’s drivel. I think I’d prefer to set it back down to 3 – what do you think? |

It’s a bed message to miss, though.  “I believe Roy S. is one of the best PR men money can buy.

Ask kentm, who has seen every single cautious advocate being exposed (home telephone # and all). It’s almost as though there’s someone contacting ISPs in the background for details. These details are used to intimidate advocate or subjugate them, using bosses/lawyers/etc. |

FWIW (side note), I’ve just received an E-mail telling me that Sam Ramji (the Microsoft insider) asked to give a speech at a LUG. They told him to stuff it (well, not in these words). It’s still that same Microsoftology thing. |

Aug 08 19:06 |

What are they going to present? ISP logs? That should make them look dangerous. If they show off a bunch of AC responses to “twitter” they will look crazy. They can show off my BRLUG posts and tell people I’m a “loose cannon”. That bothers me but not much because it has little or nothing to do with my career path. The AC stuff can be discrediting on Slashdot but it’s not as effective as gaming the system or employment denial. |
Aug 08 19:07 |

I’ve worked since I was a teenager and my living expenses are low, so I don’t need to worry too much about it. That said, I am still offered jobs sometimes. The trolls will always try to overstate risk. |

This is a similar strategy, based on what I am told, to what the government tried to do to those resisting unnecessary wars. Ruining their name, driving them insane or driving them to suicide. I sense that what Reiser did relates to this. |

Rex Ballard wrote a good post of it some weeks ago. I think a senior person in GNOME was subjected to similar ‘treatment’.

Some people ‘bail out’ on FOSS advocacy. |

Basically, the distracting correspondence is to ensure we don’t lose advocates. You know, people who voluntarily seek the truth. Summed up by a portion of the latest message: “Also, there is a *huge* amount of “underground” activity. We are so darn close to being able to show it.” But anyway, the discussion also escalated to global warning as an issue. And digi/economical divide. |

Bott and Ou have, for a long time, been like another O’Gara. They are like marketing people for Microsoft… with a site/blog. Bott sells Windows books. They actually speak with Microsoft people… and ZDNet is funded by Microsoft, indirectly. |

I found the Dustin item in Tux Machines. I only knew Dustin’s name because I see it on occasions but I didn’t know you were both on BRLUG. |

Yes, I realised this. Why did Azerthoth (from LXer, IIRC) vanish so quickly…? Anyway, I’ve just found some good news. Microsoft may slowly step into debt. |

The buyback? Didn’t you find that yesterday? |

It’s not so much celebrating the misery of others as much as it is relaising that the company which imperils freedom is weakened, so there’s hope for quicker change. And yes… the buybacks go some days back… MSFT is up while everything is down, so you know it got the go-ahead. |

Novell too is on a similar boat and I’ll blog it later. |

Of course. If M$ became a free software company it would not be a problem. Then I might be able to buy the OS I want with my computer, not have “driver” or ACPI problems and most of the world’s online forums would be a lit nicer. |

Oh yeah, ISPs would have one less excuse to block ports and forbid “servers” |

I won’t have time to blog it really, but I’ll link to it for sure. They face some radical change as the margins fall. |

It’s funny how they tried to make a distinction between the “unsafe” wireless network and the wired network. |

With spies at the relay, does it make a difference? PGP to the rescue. |

Unless I encrypt it, which often I do, I just assume someone else will read it. In the workplace it’s a common practice. |
