Melissa Di Donato, CEO of veteran Linux maker SUSE, who signed a petition calling for his removal on behalf of her organisation, tweeted: "There is a time to speak out and take a stand when abhorrent decisions are made. That time is now."
Virginia Roberts Giuffre was born August 9, 1983, and the AI conference where she was directed to have sex with Marvin Minsky was in April 2002, so she was 18 at the time.
According to a witness, she did approach Minsky at one point, and he told her to get lost. Minsky's wife was with him the whole trip and confirmed that nothing untoward happened.
I thought his crime was pointing out that someone was in a state where the legal age was 17, which made the event in discussion consensual, and not statutory rape, and that where something happens and local laws actually matter.
On his personal blog he called for the legalization of prostitution, adultery, necrophilia, bestiality, possession of child pornography, and even incest and pedophilia. In his own words: “All of these acts should be legal as long as no one is coerced. They are illegal only because of prejudice and narrowmindedness.”

See this is the thing. I have long known RMS has abhorrent personal views and I still wouldn't give a crap if he's good at ... whatever they expect him to do at FSF. Like sometimes you just need to compartmentalize aspects of a person.
Did he criticise women?
Also, Mozilla is becoming worse than Google.
How young?

So, it's the typical MeToo bullshit and even the Epstein case isn't as secure as we think it is?
