Nick and you are both openly involved in bullying and libel targeting me along with spreading misinformation about your product and our project to benefit yourselves. This has been a consistent behavior from both of you for a long time.

You frequently make false accusations against us, and that is a major part of your contribution to the libel and harassment targeting us. You fabricate stories and pretend as if you're victims of some indescribable toxicity. Debunking your claims and telling people about your abuse is not itself abuse or toxic.

Moderators across a bunch of different communities are increasingly noticing that every post about GrapheneOS is brigaded by people spreading the inaccurate talking points you have largely come up with yourselves.

You've invested heavily in character assassination and libel against me including contributing to extreme harassment and bullying perpetrated by core members of your community that you openly talk to on a daily basis. You're doing it right here, falsely claiming you folks haven't been extensively involved in it and denying what people can plainly see from the logs.

> Geez, it's one message, there was more after it, when no mods were around. I can't speak on behalf of Nick of course.

It's not one message. I don't know why you continue lying about this. It was hours of discussion where Nick was frequently involved, and where he openly encouraged and talked to people who were at the same time harassing us and raiding our rooms.

You only care about getting your community members to bring their high level of abusive behavior and toxicity to our rooms and platforms like this instead of yours. You're more than happy to allow dozens of people involved in actively harassing us, waging a misinformation war and spamming our rooms to be members of your community. You're more than happy to regularly chat with folks who have repeatedly told me to kill myself and engaged in severe harassment and libel. We have archives of evidence to prove it, and we're actively contacting other organizations and conferences to share that evidence. Persistent abusers like yourself and Nick do not belong in this industry. Again, this is the path you chose working with the people you did in such an unscrupulous way where you built your project on misinformation, libel and harassment.

We are not attributing the actions of other people to you. These are your actions. This is the path you chose and continued to double down on. You've built a highly toxic community engaged in these attacks across platforms. You've built your community with partnerships with highly abusive people like Techlore. You're involved in these attacks yourself, and part of that is pretending that you aren't and that we are somehow the aggressors for being targeted by you in this way and talking to our community about this.
