cancel-culture VS general

What a silly list with a disappointing title. The paywall dodger was the only site on the list that A) I hadn't already heard of and B) could possibly be construed as illegal. Here's my list:

https://www.fakenamegenerator.com/ - needs no explanation.

https://camelcamelcamel.com/ - Amazon price tracker.

https://www.g2a.com/ - buy/sell reused software licenses and keys, usually between 10% and 60% of MSRP, just check that they aren't stolen first...

https://www.steamregionalprices.com/ - Check the price of Steam games in other countries so you know where to set your VPN.

http://makemkv.com/ - DVD/BluRay ripping tool with really good support for breaking DRM.

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/sponsorblock-for-y... - Skip over sponsored segments of YouTube videos.

https://newpipe.net/ - Alternate Android client which blocks YouTube ads by default.

https://www.eldorado.gg/ - buy and sell video game accounts to dodge bans, play on different regions, etc.

https://github.com/travisbrown/cancel-culture - Dig up Twitter dirt on people.

https://github.com/jivoi/awesome-osint#-Table-of-Contents - Giant list of tools for finding people on the Internet.

https://aruljohn.com/freeshell/ - list of UNIX servers you can get a free account on.

https://www.cloudatcost.com/ - the most cheap, scummy cloud provider I have ever used.

https://tachiyomi.org/ - Manga client which gets you ""free"" copies of things.

https://www.freetaxusa.com/ - nothing sketchy about this except the name. All the features of TurboTax, etc and more for $15.

https://github.com/derv82/wifite2 - Wireless network "auditing"

Note I don't actually condone piracy, doxxing, etc. I'm just saying this is a much more interesting list to talk about.

Yeah, Travis seems to have been on a crusade against his detractors for a while now. See also https://github.com/travisbrown/cancel-culture

The OP is one of the most dedicated proponents of the Cancel Culture. Seriously: he made cancel-culture app. I'm interpreting his post, as a reaction to the recent events (the pushback), and an attempt to reach for wider audience.

One of the ones you refer to (cancel-culture: https://github.com/travisbrown/cancel-culture) is designed to make his own twitter experience better. Is someone not allowed to block others on twitter? Is it cancelling to decide I don't want to be forced to listen to someone? Obviously the answer is "no"; no-one has the unobstructed right to post something to twitter and everyone sees it, we all have the right to not listen to someone if we don't want to.

Usual CoC arguments

The "progressive types" that are abusing and harassing people for years now for little to no reason, including simply contributing to a hugely successful library because they have a personal crusade against the original creator. The author of this post in particular has recently been accused of stalking and make a PoC woman fear for her safety in Berlin (where they both live) https://github.com/typelevel/general/issues/112, to which he gaslighted her and attempted (with success, apparently) to have the complaint removed https://github.com/typelevel/general/issues/113. He's also well known for doxxing and defaming people

This issue which I reported, that Travis attempts to have removed. There are others.

Circe user cyber bullied on Twitter for innocuous Github Issue.

After a few years of unpleasantries this lead to a cease-of-desist and a response from someone that later had to leave Typelevel (the "shithead",-"asshole",-"rando",-"part of the reason this industry is so terrible"-incident).
