    Intersting-ish article. The author goes chud-mode to complain about not using the word "master’ and “slave” though lol.

    The first link in their article “NSA’s corruption of IETF” is more interesting.

    The author of the blog is apparently the famous Daniel Bernstein

    Not all of the applications of BCP 83 were to suppress dissent. For example, in 2019, IESG revoked posting rights for “Pradeep Kumar Xplorer”, in response to postings to IETF mailing lists that were obviously off-topic, such as “I need to father a child. I am pegged to californians and not let in and i can moveon with thai English but I need my money as cash to restart my life. I am 49” in email to ietf-smtp@ietf.org dated 26 Apr 2019 17:21:54 +0000. Of course, this revocation failed to stop “Pradeep Kumar Xplorer” from continuing to post to IETF mailing lists.

    Burying the lede a little bit with your title, op

      oof, being banned from community_badge was rough 😢

      explanation

      screenshot of me with my Banned and banned_from_community_badge badges

      • i was briefly banned from hexbear due to a misunderstanding caused by me first accidentally posting this to the wrong hexbear community, and then a hexbear admin seeing cr.yp.to in the URL and kneejerk banning me as a “crypto spammer” (😂) despite this post and that blog having nothing to do with cryptocurrency… it’s crypto-as-in-cryptography
      • the badge saying “banned_from_community_badge” instead of “Banned from community” is due to a server misconfiguration on hexbear
