RMS on grsecurity, fsf:
>I am no longer president of the FSF. I don't decide what it does.
>Please stop harassing me with useless pressure.
RMS isn't going to do anything.

How about you stop harassing him with useless pressure? The man has 1 HP. He does negative damage. If he came out against grsecurity, grsecurity's reputation would improve as they are now disliked by "that Epstein-loving pedophile-defender".
Actually, that you yourself are some kind of grsec shill is more plausible than any other speculation.
Put pressure on people who are actually part of the FSF and maybe you'll distract them from useless pozzed activity.

_Nothing_ comes even close to grsec in terms of providing security. If grsec is indeed violating copyrights then it should be enforced otherwise what's the point of licensing software at all? What's the point of the FOSS movement if licenses can be violated with absolute impunity?

The point of licensing software is to make money. Opensource licenses are not enforced.

It's a trick to get stupid idiots to write software for free. The GPL isn't going to be enforced, not by the FSF (GCC violation), not by the 1000s of linux copyright holders: they would be blackballed from the industry if they did and wouldn't be hired anywhere.

You know very well that that is not my repository.
Infact it was made by a user of this website: along with 2 other repositorys on gitlab and bitbucket. I informed the anon user that I had rescinded his license to GPC-Slots2, and was not granting him any new ones (license comes from the copyright owner, not a writing: the wrighting is simply the memorandum of the permissions given by the copyright owner, or (in the case of a copyright-license-contract) the terms and conditions of a contract). I sent DMCA take-down requests to bitbucket, gitlab, and github. Bitbucket and gitlab respected the requests, github said "Tell us your real name" and would not take it down. I informed them that the relevant law does not require a real name and that a psudonym or pen name is good enough.
But you know all this, infact you are probably that anon.

The whole point of the endeavor, as I stated on 8chan at the beginning, was to edify the linux copyright holders as to their rights vs free-takers; so that they would have leverage vs. people trying to kick them out. The first people rescinded from were the "geek feminists".

After much claiming that free-takers have some contractual rights vs the grantor (they don't: there is no contract), about a year later some opensource proponents started to realize that a court would have a hard time finding any contractual rights regarding those who gained a license for nothing. I guess they did more legal research by them.
