According to some folks, Freenode's time is up. But is this yet another example of the FOSS community overreacting?Resources for this story:[1] https://freen...
On this Gardiner seems to have done very little research and his choice of articles to highlight in the video seems very selective or totally ignorant.
And saying he doesn’t understand how there can be a gag order based on the public discussion when a gag order literally means that it can not be discussed publicly (and the people likely effected by it have not said much publicly) is just stupid.
Anyways… personally I was never a big fan of Freenode (due to their apparent resistance to improve IRC), but this take-over doesn’t seem good either. But lets see ;)
