Reposing with a different address, since my domain is hard-blocked
by kernel.org mail server.

Hello folks,


<snip>

Now they're really gone wild: I'm blocked by vger's spam filter.

An official Linux maintainer is censored on LKML for critizing his
holyness Torvalds.

First I've thought it's just when replying specific mails, but now
turned out *all* my mails are blocked, even totally unrelated things.
I can confirm it's not by the message content, but my mail address or
domain. I'm blocked from whole kernel.org


Here's some piece of evidece (there's much more, I'm collecting it all)

This is unprecented, yet another dam broken. After silently removing
valuable maintainers from the MAINTAINERS file, now they wen't another
step further and actively blocking communication.

Seems that critizing his holyness is even worse than being Russian here.
This behaviour is just triggering even more criticism.


Everybody's who's unhappy with this, feel free to bringt that on the
table @lkml. Let the Streisand effect kick in.
