Note that the "humor" in the URL above was introduced by someone who
mirrored the original page
http://www.plausiblydeniable.com/opinion/gsf.html, which is -
unfortunately - not online anymore. But it can still be accessed from
www.archive.org at
http://web.archive.org/web/20050308043359/http://www.plausiblydeniable.com/opinion/gsf.html

However, I don't see how Russ used it to _justify_ what happens in
Debian more or less regularly. He just said that the above text put some
light on these things. And he is right there.
