I know no one likes to discuss this guy here , but his recent court cases really risk harming open source development. Even if you think he is a powerless imp, at the very least he is causing much stress and anxiety for the bitcoin core devs (and likely scaring new ones from being involved - no one wants to be sued)
For the latest developments, see this youtube interview
You can obviously support bitcoin legal defence fund (does anyone have a link?) But what are the other ways we can stop this man from intimidating honest devs?
He obviously has a big following on twitter, I guess people believe his claims?
He is doing this purely for personal gain, what an oily individual! I just think this needs to stay top of mind.

The bitcoin core devs should just start contributing code anonymously if they are worried about this guy. Problem solved.

He's clearly a government asset against open source and pro KYC
"Cryptographic proof of ownership in the legal sense is indeed about more than just possession of a private key, it's also about establishing a link between a digital asset and a verifiable real-world identity."
23k is not a big following on twitter, unless I got the wrong account
