GitHub does not have a business mode, so this outcome was predictable. GitHub always lost money.

Whenever I ask about the funding they try to change the subject and act all aggressive

We now see more rumours or comments about Red Hat layoffs this coming Monday (August 11th, 2025), allegedly directed by IBM

Google is circling down the drain

Google is fast becoming an ocean of plagiarism; the same goes for Google News, which was supposed to have extra quality control

After nearly 10 waves of layoffs in 2025 (not 2 as the mainstream media likes to claim) the workforce is a lot smaller and money is still absent, except for speculation in Wall Street

This is not OK. They're basically attacking people who produce original, real, authentic work regarding Linux.

To me, Stallman is a victim of his own success and influence, which they try to retroactively take away while burning down everything he created

The Register 'UK' is now run by a Microsofter from Directions on Microsoft

Microsoft 'kill switch' installed by Matthew J. Garrett - in the face of resistance from Linus Torvalds (whom Garrett would later defame a lot)

His friends/colleagues alleged he'd plead "mental" to defend himself, but that won't work in the United Kingdom (UK), as he physically and mentally hurt many people - a fact that he's trying to hide using SLAPPs in a foreign continent, where he found an anti-metoo legal team

This is not a new problem. Later on respected people (like Bruce Schneier, who follows Slashdot) would not only link to slop but also based articles on the slop they saw in Slashdot.

It's so heavy that our kitchen scale (0-5KG) refuses to presents a weight; I had to split that up!

That's just only up until the Hearing (there has been more material sent my way since), not even counting any defence. If one adds pertinent E-mails to the above, then the grand total is around 1,400 pages.

IBM not only ignores the needs of blind people. It also attacks people like Richard Stallman, the founder of GNU/Linux

If this is his 'style' of resisting Wayland, then he does everyone a disservice, even to people who don't wish to use Wayland. He was also siccing mobs onto me, so I know this modus operandi of his. It was very direct and explicit. He did the same on his show.

The complaint made to the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) turns 3 months today. We are happy to say that it is advancing and so do the investigations into corruption at Microsoft GitHub.

The two publications that started the SLAPPs in 2021 were further reinforced over time. We had struck a nerve. Soon afterwards Miguel de Icaza fell on his sword as well. He was connected to it.

Insist that X users are "rude" and "unruly", based on the least polite ones

From where I sit and based on what I can see, this is "Team Mono" all over again. "Team Wayland" is scoring many own goals this month. Trying to force some distros to default to Wayland (or worse, offer only Wayland as an option, i.e. opposite of freedom) isn't winning, it's making a lot more enemies (alienation and suspicion) and earning even more pushback than ever before.
