15:15 TR News; Gulagboy appears to have hit a cycle of illness-depression-illness. Abusing and defaming people is a recipe for personal tragedy.
15:16 TR News; So defaming FSF people will generally get hard and also legally risky (there are papers in the UK High Court naming at least 3 FSF Board members/FS people, as examples of people abused online), as shall become apparent one day
15:17 TR News; So thanks to Techrights, Gulagboy already needs to be super-careful with his online conduct
15:18 TR News; Also to avoid restraining orders and injunctions in case his abuses carry on
15:19 TR News; Today, exactly 3.5 months since this http://techrights.org/n/2024/09/06/Why_We_Are_Suing_Matthew_J_Garrett_for_Harassment_and_Why_It_s_.shtml , Gulagboy has failed to file a Defence. Stalling, delaying, making excuses like a spoiled kid.
15:19 -TechrightsSocial/#boycottnovell-social-techrights.org | Techrights Why We Are Suing Matthew J. Garrett for Harassment and Why It's Important to Everybody in the Community
15:20 TR News; Because some people simply cannot accept the idea they do something illegal, they always see them (themselves) as the victims. Apparently adding "SJW" on your name makes you immune to criticism AND always the victim.
15:21 TR News; In the legal system, however, putting "SJW" flair next to the name does not win you legal battles like social control media with "warrior" editors (moderators who love banning critics of rich people and big corporations)
15:22 TR News; This is why Techrights is winning this and Gulagboy is now retreating to Microsoft for "HELP!"
15:24 TR News; And of course he still reads everything in IRC (and makes this known). Talking in IRC, however, would be way too risky for him. He just hides behind Mustafa and sends threatening letters every now and then. Not worth the paper it's typed on.
