from Linus Torvalds to Jacob Appelbaum (Score 1)

This may appear old but it shows the way that toxic people warmed up for the attack on Jacob Appelbaum with falsified harassment claims. After the success of these techniques against Appelbaum, they circled back to get Linus in 2018 and Richard Stallman in 2019. Serious developers may not speak up publicly to defend Linus and RMS but many are deterred from contributing, they quietly leave projects like Debian. In the long run, users receive less software as a consequence.
