Morten LinderudPeople are rightfully angry at age verification laws.
That doesn't justify any harassment campaigns towards *any* FOSS developers, maintainers nor contributors. Turn that anger towards something productive.
Get a grip people, holy shit.
Jesus MichaΕ "Le Sigh" π (he)@Foxboron, well, I suppose i'm missing some context here, but it really sounds like you are defending people who aren't just "forced" to implement something, but who are doing that wilfully while having openly expressed opinions largely in agreement with these laws.
In other words, it sounds like another case of "Don't be angry at nazis, they're people too. Just kiss their feet and hope they don't decide that you don't deserve to live the next week. Unless they already believe that, and are just waiting for a good excuse to have you executed."
Do you think harassment of FOSS maintainers, developer and contributors is fine?
Where harassment means writing dossiers/doxxing them or sending death threats?

I believe you get these reactions because harassment is a vague term. Just being many people strongly but respectfully disagreeing can be considered harassment. Many people feel entitled to voice their disagreement with a FLOOS maintainer. That's the equivalent of a protest. If by harassment, you meant the above (doxxing, death threats...), I am pretty sure almost everybody would agree with you.
