Awesome :-) DeVault gets his just desserts.
Ironically, the writing felt weaker than Drew’s, which led to unexpected feelings while reading. For example:
r/preteen_girls (why this was even allowed to exist is beyond our comprehension)
Emphasis mine. My immediate reaction was this shouldn’t be beyond comprehension to anyone who looks into Reddit’s history and culture. Silly, not even a nitpick proper—though I have one—but it got a snort from me.
Anyway, assuming provided information is correct, seems he:
- Likes sexual anime-like depictions of minors
- Is sloppy at compartmentalizing his internet activity (or didn’t care to; why?)
I, uh, also wonder if one can get in trouble for hosting screenshots of certain content for a report. Guess it also depends on where they’re hosting from. I hope they’re fine, because from this report and the rest of their blog, they seem to enjoy internet slapfights.
!!< Leaked picture of DeVault publishing the Stallman report
TLDR: Drew DeVault may be viewing Loli images.
…Im kinda over drama “content” about persons in open source. I just want to grill to find cool libre software!
your tldr is kinda underselling it ngl
i also don’t like drama - but i think this is important because this report shows that drew clearly did not care about the unethical takes of stallman when he created the stallman report, the report was an attack on the FSF and the free software community in general and people were unable to recognize this when the report was first published
the report was an attack on the FSF and the free software
Stallman is not the FSF. The FSF is not the free software community. The free software community is not free software.
I’m so tired to people presenting these things as if they are equivalent.
Stallman is not the FSF.
FYI, DeVault’s Stallman Report explicitly attacks the FSF as well as Stallman.
The FSF is not the free software community
OP said that the report was “an attack on the FSF and the free software community in general” which doesn’t imply that the FSF is the free software community and in fact is explicitly distinguishing the two. I took it mean that the report was such a deceitful and irrational work, presented in such a duplicitous manner as to constitute an attack on the senses of the community.
Edit: in fact, the report does attack the community, even if justification for the attack is invalid:
“The case against Stallman is clear, and yet the free software community has failed to act …” – https://stallman-report.org/#why-publish-this-report
nobody said stallman is fsf
the report also targets the fsf:
To all members of the present-day Voting Members and Board of Directors who were contemporaneous with the 2019 scandal and the associated patterns of misconduct, we urge you to step down from your posts and allow new leaders to fill your roles. Namely:
- Alexandre Oliva
- Geoffrey Knauth
- Gerald Sussman
- Henry Poole
In particular we call upon Mr. Knauth to uphold his 2021 pledge to resign “as soon as there is a clear path for new leadership assuring continuity of the FSF’s mission and compliance with fiduciary requirements”.
Weird that hacker news allowed the stallman report that Drew apparently sock puppeted, but took down this piece on drew
