Summary: Today… something a little different; I’m talking about how I use my computers ‘at work’ (home) and how we get stuff done even when there’s online abuse
THE video above shows how I manage various tasks (this year it’s different). The Techrights monitoring, for instance, helps ensure decent uptime and quick response time in case of unforeseen incidents.
Our uptime has been nearly perfect for months, even when cyberattacks were attempted. The uptime is way above 99% and we can improve this even further (maybe 99.9%).
Recently there were unsuccessful attempts to disrupt our publication, our community, and our morale. Such attempts aren’t unprecedented, but this time a lot of crimes were committed against myself, my wife, and others.
The short story is that someone who had severe burnout last year (and took a “break” from work at the end of last year, according to himself, citing “burnout”) and who now lives in dire conditions in a forest doing crack-cocaine while talking about his own death (publicly in Mastodon/Fediverse) and sending parcels without return address (from the UK!) has gone completely bonkers. He has done this for years and it’s escalating this year. He persists while sending many subtle death threats (such threats are not “jokes”) and talking about himself as a third person. He resorted to “pranks” like saying he phoned my ISP to disconnect my line so I cannot reach the police and probably launched several DDOS attacks against our server (probable attribution is possible based on the timing; this happened at least 3 times this past week), impacting many sites that reside there on the server. And that’s aside from hate crimes, doxing, etc. He’s beyond sanity. And he is now engaging in deliberate fabrication, creating fake blogs for women that don’t exist, making allegations against me (while claiming to be these fictional women), on top of the online death threats (perhaps he thinks it’s “funny”). This sick obsession was meant to intimidate me, but the suffering seems to be self-inflicted, impacting the abuser. To the point of increasing levels of insanity. It almost seems like he’s obviously — albeit not literally– never sleeping, just doing a lot of drugs and having all the time in the world for petty harassment with over 100 sockpuppets (different accounts, created from an anonymisation network), with all this abuse going months back (primarily but not only from his sockpuppets; sometimes he’d do it directly from his real name account). Well, doxing against two people is against British law (two crimes), there seem to be as many as 3 cybercrimes committed, and the list grows longer and longer each day.
Offering cocaine in Internet Chat Relay (IRC, our network) constitutes several potential criminal cases in the US, even just mere possession of it. There are also hate crimes, promoting/offering pedophilia, 2 criminal cases associated with attacking servers in the US (many victims), civil issues like cyberstalking plus defamation, and sending letters from the UK (or sending people to one’s doorstep) to lie and issue veiled threats. With about 500 pieces of evidence we’ve collected it can take a long time for an outsider to examine it all, but we’ve kept a detailed record of all these events. █
