True indeed, but if someone wants to commit suicide we do have a

We may have a duty to point out to him that we think his idea is
not good, but if he is decided, our duty then is to help him,
including acting as kaishakunin if he asks us to.
Your idea of moral duty is obviously different from mine. I doubt if
the law would see it your way either.
Depends on what you see in Mageia. Is Mageia a mere provider of a
technical system who does not care further than uploading the
software? If so we don't need to discuss questions, we don't need to
give warnings about anything, etc. Or do we have a sense of moral duty
which goes beyond that? I am happy to see the decision of Mageia
showing that they care.
Whether I agree with the results or not, I get annoyed when people
presume to do my risk assessments for me. I would rather do it myself in
most cases. And this is one of those cases.
