Bug#1135385: serious: gnome-control-center enables donation nag by default, violating Debian Social Contract Clause 4

[anonreporter . debian . 2026]

Maintaining a default-enabled donation prompt in gnome-control-center
without informed user consent is a clear violation of Debian Social
Contract Clause 4 and a threat to user trust. Report #1135385
re-characterizes the issue as not merely technical, and dismissing
this as a “duplicate” is not a mere procedural decision, but
continued ethical failure. Debian maintainers are stewards, and
allowing external fundraising agendas to override user interests (via
clear notification opt-in or removal entirely) undermines Debian’s
principles and reputation. This matter must be escalated to the Debian
Technical Committee under Constitution 6.1.4 for formal review. This
continued inaction, and anything less than swift action, only reflects
the deliberate choice to continued to compromise Debian’s integrity,
and the community deserves better. Stepping down as package maintainer
is now strongly warranted. Three strikes and you're OUT, as the adage
goes:
1) disabling the banner when the package hit your desk the first time
before push
2) addressing in https://bugs.debian.org/1120511
3) addressing in https://bugs.debian.org/1135385
