There's no Labor Party in the UK. Though I've got to hand it to the USA - you fellows are really taking this cultural imperialism thing to the next level!
CAPTCHA images defeat OCR techniques? To my knowledge most text-image CAPTCHAs don't defeat sophisticated OCR and those that do are hardly likely to be easily readable enough to spam any but the most gullible to any effect.
Give up. This is clearly not a fabrication; the denizens of #php.pecl would most certainly have come out against it otherwise, since you can be assured that they know of this story.
Nice libel case. "Hey, this guy said that I said this, it was confirmed by another person on the same site, others provided complementary evidence, a trustworthy source provided an exact corroborating section of the quote, and nobody who could have provided evidence to the contrary did so. And since this is an actual libel case, further corroborating sources are compelled to give testimony, and the failure of the case confirms once again to the world that I really did say it."
I don't think I made significant efforts to hide my identity in any case. But to state that I "denied" Jani anonymity is utterly false. This is a story that centres around him, and I have provided truthful information which is highly pertinent to this story. Note the obscenely offensive nature of Jani Taskinen's outburst, and his declaration that he does not care what people think of him. Note that this was made in a publically accessible channel in which he had no reasonable expectation of private communication.
This is not a stitch-up job. I am sorry that anyone would get into the state that Jani is in, but he is responsible for himself and his own statements. I owe him no anonymity, but he owed himself much better.
Additionally, in the presense of corroborating evidence from a trustworthy source, I would suggest you cease casting aspersions upon my honesty in this matter and refrain from making unproveable comments about me and my personal life. I'm all up for internet flamewars, but I'm not very tolerant of this brand of hypocrisy.
This outburst comes after Israeli airstrikes and artillery killed a Finnish UN peacekeeper in Lebanon. Jani Taskinen is or has been a UN peacekeeper and friends of his indicate he has served in Lebanon, even in the outpost that was attacked. There's some background and some "provocation" but there's no justification.
I will happily paste any context that anyone from the channel wants to give me. I don't have any more context than I have already given throughout this thread.
For corroboration, see the comment from another user that confirms this is real.
As for a name behind the words, the name is Jani Taskinen, and the words are his. If he wants to sue himself for libel, that's entirely his own business and maybe you could donate $50 split 1:1 between his claimant and defendant lawyers.

that's a sample size that even andrew wakefield would have considered ridiculous
i don't think you can read. pretty marvellous that you still managed to post, though!
It's not just a word (and it's not an M&S word, either). It's a component of a proper noun.

it's pretty much the same thing since a EULA is an agreement with the copyright holder
I believe Microsoft thinks ActiveX is sandboxing.
All research must be of the same intellectual magnitude?

I wouldn't hire you.

What is libellous about making truthful, verifiable quotes? Please answer. :)

I hope this settles any speculation about who is or is not a Mossad agent fabricating stories to destroy the internet.
Have fun with your "dormant puppet account" conspiracy theories. I guess if I was Mossad then I would have such accounts.
But then, if I was Mossad I would kidnap you from your home country and fly you to Israel to prosecute you for whatever. So you'd better watch out.
I don't think you read previous comments.

He is his own accuser. I am a ctrl-c ctrl-v.
I share what information I have, and I did not make Jani say what he said. Accusations of political motivation on my part are ridiculous.
