As a member of the Trisquel site some 4+ years, I was under the impression
our email addresses (and other personal info) were kept confidential by the
site maintainers. Therefore I was surprised when "J.B. Nicholson-Owens"
responded to my, and other forum posts, by quoting our email

I wasn't talking about that, I was talking about the fact that the whole way

My post was about showing, that gnutaler cannot work as a tool against

It can. It uses what is known (for 34 years) as "blind signature" to

Pessimism is not realism and realism is: people, most of them, don't care and

explode more. I agree with the point expressed in the book "The transparent

David,
If this be the case, then our friend Quantum made a valid point, the right to

You can see I am an old-timey user here, like 4 years 44 weeks. There was
nothing about duplicating forum posts with an email list and publishing

We can do both simultaneously if you post a new topic with your concerns. I

Hi!
I'm afraid you've misinterpreted a technical feature as some kind of foul
play.
Trisquel's user forums and mailing lists are synchronized so you can
participate on them both through the website and through you preferred e-mail
client. J.B. Nicholson-Owens is not using any admin
I was always under the impression that e-mail addresses used on this forum
are not private. Everyone who receives e-mail updates of posts from this
forum can see the e-mail address of anyone who posts here, right?
In any case, why is it alarming that the forum admins have access to every
Oh darling, before we get into that. Let us first address the behaviour of
Trisquel site runners. Let them observe their own terms and conditions before
we start pointing fingers via this site elsewhere. : - )

technologies, what is strategically the best course of action for those of us

So, essentially, "J.B. Nicholson-Owens" has admin priviliges and can flout
Trisquel's terms and conditions as s/he pleases. Not just with me, but with
pretty much any user and the runners of the Trisquel site are cool with this.
