the Go maintainers are now claiming that objectors to Google's opt-out telemetry proposal on the Go compiler - yes, really - are arguing in bad faith and violating the Code of Conduct, and their comments are getting hidden.

well done lads, you just keep doing that as hard as possible. i'm sure it'll work out great.

@davidgerard let me guess, they're using a variant of the Contributor Covenant to do that. It's real good for suppressing people, it's what it was made for.
@adversary @davidgerard As I'm sure you're already aware, the Contributor Covenant was designed to stop discrimination, bullying and hate speech in FOSS projects. It wasn't made by a corporation. If you have a beef with it, I'm going to guess it's stopped you from behaving like an arsehole at some point.

@fishidwardrobe @adversary @davidgerard

Did you ever look at the kind of "empathetic" and "non bullying" stuff their originators posted on social media? It's all hypocrisy. They yell and bully as much as they like.

@unconed @[email protected] @davidgerard "originators". Nope, it's one person. you're talking BS.
