Re: [DNG] Fwd: Re: Code of Conduct: Let's revamp it.

What's so terrible about some preliminary pro-bono work to help 
exploited or soon-to-be exploited IT workers?
It's a magnanimous act of mercy.
Are you galled that said help doesn't run your way?
I will admit, I don't know the local barristers' "Code of Conduct" 
backwards nor forwards, and, like the Linux CoC, I care not for those 
things attempting to restrict one's civil liberties (such as freedom to 
speak, think, oppose the mastery of women over males, etc, ),
and I'm sure being anti-feminist and pro-marry-young-girls (as permitted 
by YHWH in Devarim chapter 22, verse 28 (na'ar)) violates that subset of 
the anglo-american religion which I absolutely abhor and wish to see 
rendered unto the void.
I know we are not to mislead people, not to chase medical lorries 
(well... there are nuances here), etc.

But I will not cower in the face of your threats to a livelihood.
I will speak the truth, as I have, regardless of your pageantry.

And I will have you know, again, that licenses not supported by an 
interest are revocable by the grantor at his leisure.
(and, to note; if you had a legal refutation you would have made it, 
rather than engaging in an attempted threat to what you imagine is the 
supply of my monies)

Additionally, I would encourage those sanctioned by the CoC lovers to 
indeed, rescind the grant that has been given.
... and then to sue under copyright for statutory damages or profits, 
depending on the defendant (individuals should be sued for statutory 
damages, corps for profits).

I leave it up to your local barristers to sort the details, ofcourse.

(and if ever it should be, that your wish my come true, regarding my 
employ, what do I love so in life, that if I were to lose it I would 
rue?)
