Wow elementaryos in full lockdown damage control mode!

Banned krisives from their Slack instance (where they told him to DM them) and also banned him from the elementaryos subreddit.

Now this story has been [flagged] here.

Orwellian. I will never touch anything elementaryos.

View on HN

The user (who appears to have posted this link, btw, based on recent post history) has been disruptive in the subreddit and Slack in the past, and then literally started publicly doxxing _and_ going around to social media to draw public attention to the post. I messaged them on Slack and they ignored it, continued to post in the thread, and continued posting on social media to draw attention to it. There's zero tolerance for doxxing in the elementary community, so they've been banned in accordance to the elementary Code of Conduct.

You are in the right if that's all true. But the fact that you are banning him/her right when there is a ongoing disagreement makes me question the validity of your claim.

They uploaded documents with my personal information in them when it was not even necessary to discuss the issue. They refuse to remove the documents at my request. They continue to draw attention to the post on social media. That's absolutely ban-worthy behavior.

Weren't those public documents you submitted for a trademark request?

Those documents were public, and central evidense upon which an argument rests.

Wait, does that mean you're now "doxxing" people?

The Slack/reddit ban and the grotesque doxxing accusations are exactly why these conversations must happen in the open. Your histrionic replies to both the GitHub issue and the comments here are just further proofs for me that I should never touch anything elementaryos related.

You failed epically and instead of issuing a mea culpa you just doubled down for the whole world to see.

"Orwellian"? "Grotesque"? "histrionic"?

How about "hyperbole"?

Actually, it's you who doxxed yourself when you choose to use your residential address for a LLC. They just shared a searchable, public domain document.
