Looks like all questions are blocked on lists.fsfe.org now so we will never ever know but we never have to give them money again either May 24, 2019, 8:13 AM by [email protected]: > > > Hi all, > > Matthias Kirschner sent an email recently using the word Fraud. > > If any of you downloaded the mailing list data that FSFE made available, > what you have done is much like browsing a list of your friend's friends > on social media.
