If someone does start using this as a weapon, I'm sure we'll work out that they probably don't deserve the trust implicit in being a DD. Apparently (as Jorg pointed out) it has not happened to date (not even during the heat of the systemd debate) so I see no reason to assume the worst. I hope that the fact that you apparently have more pessimistic expectations does not indicate that you would find it acceptable to remove someone else's blog simply because you disagree with them.
