I look at it from the narrative that I ran a decades-old channel on Freenode, and your scripts deopped me, removed my control of the channel, and opped some rando who had never even been there before. I have no stake in any of the other posturing from either side: I had a channel with a couple hundred users, and then I did not. We had no choice but to move to another ircnet (not one operated by people dumb enough to get their network snatched from under them, either). Handshake is yet another cryptocoin grift entirely reliant on the assumption that it will never be important enough to attack. Its anti-government-control claims are equivalent to a high-school student in Tulsa bragging that Mike Tyson is afraid to fight him -- it's not that anyone is convinced Handshake is unassailable, it's just that nobody cares. |

As for your comment on Handshake, you sound a lot like the opponents we used to face in the early days of crypto and the cypherpunk movement. That means we're getting somewhere! :-)
