BSOD contains a NSFW image #6

Open nickforddev opened 5 years ago

nickforddev commented 5 years ago

Might be a good idea to make the ransomware image in BSOD turned off by default, as it contains the message:

"Your important dick pix have been encrypted"

Not saying it should be removed, but to unsuspecting users who download this on their work machines, I'm sure most people would prefer to have this one disabled by default.

I know this repo is just a mirror, but I didn't know where else to comment...

Well, there's email...according to https://www.jwz.org/contact.html, the address you want is jwz@jwz.org.

jwz has so far been unsympathetic to this kind of request. See https://www.jwz.org/blog/2016/04/i-would-like-debian-to-stop-shipping-xscreensaver/#comment-166431

[NSFW removal] Changes I also strongly object to, by the way, and another reason I would be happy for them to simply not redistribute my work at all.
