I really think this whole thing would make for entertaining content on one of the YouTube drama channels. Overall, I thought the kernel team was right to be upset about being experimented on without consent, but the exchanges on both sides had some notable incidents of immaturity. I didn't think the attacks against the static analysis guy were totally justified. They were calling him an idiot for putting in an unnecessary null check. To be clear, he then also overreacted, and that really made me think that it only takes one side to start de-escalating things. The most disappointing response IMO was from the University itself. I didn't like how they deflected off the issue of why there was no IRB questioning of this. Just because human experimentation is narrowly defined federally doesn't mean you can't have higher standards.
