I don't have the knowledge now nor am I likely to in the future to understand what happened between these guys. Daniel has provided info on Twitter and has been known to be helpful to the community, J at Copperhead has been amazing with correcting any technical misunderstandings
Conversation
James is a scammer who repeatedly makes fraudulent claims about myself, GrapheneOS and CopperheadOS. He has been highly abusive to myself and GrapheneOS. He has caused immense harm to open source privacy and security work, which CopperheadOS is not. You cannot support both of us.

Your tweet is enough to make you complicit in the harm and fraud being perpetrated against us. You're not welcome to follow me, or to use my work either via GrapheneOS or forks of the legacy code like CopperheadOS if you're going to be complicit in causing harm to us.

Hi Daniel, I currently run Graphene. Who I follow on Twitter is not indicative of an endorsement. I believe both OS's are an enhancement to non AOSP software.
You're welcome to block me but I'll run the OS until you're no longer supporting it.
Have a good day.

Supporting it makes you complicit in causing harm to open source projects / developers including myself through your support and whitewashing for abuse and fraud. If you support them, you're volunteering to be listed as one of their supporters complicit in the harm they cause.

Stating my opinion on the OS's relative security to other non AOSP software is not “support” nor is it “whitewashing”. I'm speaking from my own experience.
If I were you, I'd think very carefully about putting my name on a public “list” especially if there are accusations.

I've included you in the list of people complicit in the fraud and harm perpetrated by Copperhead and James Donaldson. I'll make it very clear that what you've done is to make public statements in support of them on Twitter. If you don't stand behind what you said, let me know.

If you're going to be supportive of them, you're helping them cause harm by perpetrating their fraud. The people doing this are responsible for their ability to continue getting resources to cause harm to us. You are NOT welcome to follow us or use any of our work if you do that.

I can't legally forbid you from using it since it's an open source project (unlike CopperheadOS), but I don't want people supporting my abusers to use it. I think that's highly disrespectful. You use my work and yet you're doing your part to aid in harm being done to us.

Give me the lecture on respect when you learn the meaning of abuse.
This is an outrageous thread and your inability to communicate properly will put people off using your work.
You're your own worst enemy.
I'll drop you a note later on how you can still be OSS and exclude me.

I think you're misunderstanding something about what I said.

I didn't accuse you of any abuse. I said that you were complicit in it through enabling their continued abuse.
I'm not doing anything to exclude you beyond saying I don't want you using it.

I said you were complicit in abuse. That means you're an enabler of this ongoing harm and abuse being perpetrated against myself and others. Anyone voicing support for them is complicit through encouraging people to give them support / money which they use to cause harm to us.
I'm not going to block you. If you're going to lend support to James Donaldson / Copperhead, I don't want you following me. Up to you if you're going to respect my wishes. All I've done is make you aware that I'm not happy with you using my work / following me when you do that.

I’ll respect your wishes when you respect me. Words such as “please” and “thank you” work wonders.
