Graham Boyce alluded to it in one of his messages.
but I did see Cecilia respectful (if painfully submissive) request to be allowed to rejoin under her own provisio then she keep herself "on-topic". It seems evident she cannot even contact Boyce since he has kill filed her.
His inbox, his rules.
Would you agree that users who are about to be banned, ought be given, say, AT LEAST ONE CHANCE to comply with a request to "stop posting off topic, if you continue we will ban you"?
Tor Project's mailing list, Tor Project's rules. That said, I am inclined to be nice and warn first. However, I feel no obligation to do so, particularly if a disruptive participant knows he/she is being disruptive and/or posting off-topic on purpose.
Wow. You're really hard core here. Intended or not by you, you are coming across to me as pretty hard core fascist. If not intended, I grant you may just be modern-classicly schooled.
The US, its states and cities, and for that matter most of the civilized world, is run by laws. Yes, sometimes the people that make those laws get it wrong, but I believe at least with the laws regarding harassment and unauthorized computer system access, they got it right. That said, one should not need to read a law book or a holy book to know how to behave as a member of decent society. Threatening to rejoin a mailing list one has just been booted from, is not how decent people behave. -- Shawn K. Quinn <skquinn@rushpost.com>
