[liberationtech] Thank You

[Yosem Companys]

Dear List Subscribers,

As of today, I have ceased to be a moderator of all Stanford Liberationtech
lists.

I feel like Superman when he loses his powers, except I hope the ending is
more like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUORL-bvwA0.

Just kidding. :)

On a more serious note, I want to thank all of you for a wonderful 9 years
of discussions about Liberationtech issues.

I also want to thank you all for the arguing and jousting and name calling
and... No, seriously, you were all great. I rarely had to step in to
moderate.

Although I know some disagreed with my moderation style of letting every
message through and only permanently moderating those who were extremely
disruptive, I feel proud that the list always tried to ensure unfettered
freedom of expression.

We now have approximately 4K members from around the world working to make
the world a better place.

I am not leaving, so this is not goodbye. It's more like, "see you later."
I'll now be a regular member and as such be able to participate much more
freely in discussions than I was able to do when I was a moderator.

Take care, everyone, and keep up the good fight to protect pro-democracy
activists fighting against authoritarian regimes.

Best,
Yosem
