Update:


#Purism has decided not to honor my request to be removed from their #purismforums and be provided my data, stating:

We will not delete the anonymized accounts or posts

To #purismforum users, I do not consent to any of what has happened, and I recommend abandoning that site.

To users who stay there, never link to my projects or my socials and never mention me, my socials, or my projects ever again.

For those wondering:

I find myself in this situation because transphobic posts harassing me were allowed to remain on that site while Purism moderators removed, hid, or censored some of my responses. My posts were calm, civil, and respectful, while many of the posts directed at me were none of those things. Purism’s moderators decided that it is acceptable for users to repeatedly post transphobic insults directed at a trans user, while it is strictly unacceptable for any user to say the word “fuck” in any context, including in a hidden thread that exists for discussions centered around the “politics” of pronouns.

Goodbye and good riddance

    @user0 that’s very sad to hear…
    As @Septimaeus mentioned, it might be worth requesting a data deletion via official channels if you want that content gone, I (maybe naively) expect it should work.
    A bit sad to see that you also moved your repos to private, though, but thanks for all your work on mobile Firefox so far!
