Thanks for the reference! I found LTMI's registration in Delaware (file numbers 6362713 and 5806497; 4797091 looks unrelated). I see how this doc says Kape is acquiring LTM, but Freenode's announcement specifically says it's coming under PIA. Other things line up, like Christel being the Freenode admin and PIA Chief Communications Officer, even writing a blog post about this acquisition: https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/blog/2019/11/the-conti...

Besides this document's omission, what leads you to think Freenode is not part of PIA?

Edit: I'm not trying to make an ad hominem here, but I see in an earlier comment you describe yourself as the CEO of irc.com, which is also a PIA project (in some sense - again, I don't know the legal relationship or if there's a separate entity). So it sounds like you know what you're talking about, and I hope you can help find or make public some material support for the claim that Freenode is unaffected by this.

Indeed another comment further up cites his involvement before he'd admitted it. Everything about PIA is super shady. rasengan has always been a bit off, and some of his comments show glaring holes in his knowledge of his own field. ryanlol nailed him to the wall pretty handily a few days ago. It's almost like some comments are normal, some are like the PR guy grabbed the keyboard. All I know is I wont touch PIA or Nord anymore
