Help defend Monica from defamation!

Stack Overflow, Inc. must repair the damage caused by their libel against Monica Cellio, be willing to talk, treat users with respect, learn about the world outside the United States, open the governance of the sites.

I was a volunteer moderator on this site from its creation to 2019, but stopped when I could not in good conscience condone actions by the company that runs it.

I am a developer, mainly on embedded systems, with a computer science background and security and cryptography leanings by trade. I also have interests in various other topics.
