I always enjoy patio11's writing. I remember feeling what felt like barely constrained rage in his piece where he was proving provenance of a document or a prediction around how COVID could interact with the populations in Japan. 0, 1 The whole point of 0 ("dropping hashes") was to make sense of 1 0: https://www.kalzumeus.com/essays/dropping-hashes/ https://www.kalzumeus.com/essays/dropping-hashes/ 1: https://www.kalzumeus.com/2020/04/21/japan-coronavirus/ https://www.kalzumeus.com/2020/04/21/japan-coronavirus/ I believe i perceive a similar level of outrage and indignation over what feels like a serious mismanagement of real resources. Like... Blowing up banks hurts real people, represents real fraud, and after dealing with the people and groups he dealt with through the vaccinateCA effort, I think he is tying together basically a comprehensive legal defense that someone else could run while charging someone like this banker/pretend banker with fraud. even if there was jail time on the other side of it. Maybe it's also a little bit of a show of force, explaining what it might be like for a bank to go after an independent and resourced individual. I expect anyone else who might think of going after him, after encountering this piece, will be a bit less inclined to pursue bullying as a strategy.
