That's fine.  Just talk to some else, e.g. a hired Babysitter.

p.s. and cross-posting to more than half a dozend list and individuals
isn't exactly considered polite either ;-)

p.p.s. have a lot of fun fighting the internet fundamentals :)

Free as in Freedom in
http://www.gnu.org/home.html#ContactInfo

You're not even able to remove a couple of messages,
so how free am I now?
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wanted $300 for removal!
How free am I now? You should be ashamed of
yourselves!

Not only privacy is not respected, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
also threatened that more hits would be generated in
the archives, [EMAIL PROTECTED] shouldn't do that,
it's against privacy in case you didn't realize!

This is the internet. It's where people work together and share data.
If you want to do that in private, use a VPN. If you want to be in
private, just don't post emails to publically archived mailing lists.

That's not hard, but it's too late right now. You've done that
mistake and you cannot turn back time.

So please shut up now.

However, you have been told quite clearly what the site policy is.  None
of the mailing lists at gcc.gnu.org are intended to be rant lists so you
really do have to stop sending this type of email since it is off-topic
for every list that you are using.

If you can't stop yourself, then steps will be taken to block you from
sending email here.

Ah, so your understanding of Freedom reads like:

   Okay guys, I've sent out some rude emails insulting you a bit about
   your fortran stuff and all. I've put that into publically archived
   mailing lists and I just ignored the fact of publically archived.
   Well, it seems to fuck up by bio and because of me being lame,
   please waste your time to search the archives for my name and drop
   them all, maybe even including replys etc.

My reading of Freedom is more like:

   Heya, your mailing list archive sux because you cannot easily find
   a people's attitude there. I've taken all the HTML stuff and made
   it useful. With a single click, you can now find out if a person is
   only a lame guy not reading sources or documentation, yelling about
   it's inabilities and not doing any community work.

See the difference? Freedom, as we see it, is the right to
participate, not the right to let others work for you. But you'll
learn that the other day.

It is of course not a threat to point out that
anything you post here will be permanently
associated with your name for ever, and that
there is no way to undo this. This is just a
statement of fact.

There is always a way of undoing things, it's simply a
matter if you want to do so or not, and in this case
clearly not. I don't see any reason why this
conversation will be listed by just mailing a couple
e-mailaddresses which I contacted before numerous
times and no one responded for the simple reason they
don't want to. Just delete all e-mailaddresses and
state clearly that once posted it can not be undone. 

I'm almost sure that your practices are against the
laws of privacy. Tomorrow I will check this out, as a
matter of fact I already did. You have no right to
publish things without permission. If all this crap is
ever to be published, no one will believe, gnu.org is
simply making itself ridiculous by publishing this.

I just got another mail from Christopher Faylor, which
threatens to block me from sending mail, why not,
once again so much freedom...
There isn't even freedom of speech here.
Do I continue until I'm blocked?

 I did not mean my message at all as a threat, but
 just as some helpful advice. Note that it was sent

 good idea to post such private messages to a public

 copyright, though that's not clear). For sure it is
 a violation of netiquette, so you add that to your
 record here.
 
 I respond to the list here just to make it clear

 In our modern day and age, people will often google
 a name to find out more about someone, and when they
 do that, all your old posts will appear. Again,
 that's
 not a threat, just a statement of a fact that should
 be clear to anyone posting on any list.

First of all, again you are quoting my private
messages.

Second, the $300 has nothing to do with me, though
I see no objection to people charging for work you
ask them to do on your behalf.

Third, can't you get it through your head that
no threats are involved here, just some very
basic statements of facts. You seem to be unaware
of these facts as was clear from your initial post.

This is certainly off-topic noise but on the other
hand perhaps it is instructive to any others
following this list who may be sharing the same
misconceptions as Alexander.

Anyway, I am killing this thread now, and apologies
to anyone annoyed by these messages. In both the
last two cases, I made the mistake of sending
private advice to Alexander, clearly something
that is not helpful in this situation.
