Who is the only person who would know that aristarchus has not responded to email for 'months' now? Errr, let's see if we can work it out. Oh hang-on - that means that YOU are aristarchus. And you are obviously not dead.
You see, you remain stupid. What you say and do compromises who you are. It doesn't matter how many times you change your IP address - it is the content of your comments which tells us who you actually are. Yet you are still concerned with IP addresses and hashes.
You often post your comments at roughly the same times each day. The content doesn't really change. Your style of writing doesn't change. Your lies don't change. Your abuse of others doesn't change. Most other ACs actually have accounts. I don't know who they are when they post, but I can tell that they have an account. So from a community of over 250 people, only 4 - 5 are genuine ACs. And one of them will be you. It isn't difficult to identify you. Effectively, you are trying to hide by standing next to the pitcher in a baseball stadium rather than sitting quietly in the crowd.
But as you see it isn't a 'supposed' source. It is you, and you insist on telling everybody that it is you.

Yes, of course, I am aristarchus, just because I happened to be in email contact with him, mostly because I thought his ban was illegal and unjust. You have compromised yourself, janrinok! Confess! Confess! the power of AC compels you! Confess!

Cool trick. Can you tell us how you remain in email contact with the dead? I'd like to touch base with a few of my own dead relatives and friends. Does Elon Musk know that his sattelites transmit to hell?

Reading comprehension, before you comment, lest ye be flagged. Lack of response puts this in the past. Interruption of communication can only mean one thing.

Which law is relevant to this?

So this is censorship of particular content, not a banned party? And the content that is banned all tends to be either a) leftist b)critical of fascists or c)critical of janrinok. What are we to conclude from all these facts?

What we can conclude from your selective quoting of what was written is that it demonstrates your dishonesty.

Different AC here, one of 4-5, it seems.
My take
Runaway from this, is that janrinok is doxxing every single soylentil that has an account, when they post as AC! Not really anonymous, is it? Admin abuse like this is a real problem, and why I no longer post AC from my account, which I no longer use. Oh, I am not sanguine about things changing, either.(Score: -1, Troll) by Anonymous Coward on Sunday October 19, @06:20PM
As the kids say these days, "skill issue."
If you are not a techy that understands all the details of changing your IP after logging into an account, or any time one wishes to be AC, then it is perfectly acceptable for a volunteer to doxx the AC. They sure do frown on others doing the same, or even referencing the content someone else posts. Unless it is a site volunteer or accepted user. Strange code of conduct this site has, very illogical and unpredictable.

Maybe Ari has been replaced by an AI? Based on his existing content you don't need a smart AI to replace Ari. Maybe even a small script would do.

Not incorrect, but also an understatement. It would be more accurate to say that he is a person with many mental problems.

Here I thought personal attacks were against the rules. I guess the excuse is "the community will mod if they want." Always a convenient system of scapegoating. Not that I disagree with the viewpoint, but it is a rather mean personal attack.

Well you are correct in parts.
Personal attacks against community members are against the rules. The AC being discussed is aristarchus, who is banned i.e. he is not a community member. Otherwise criticism of Trump, AOC or anyone else in the world would also be forbidden but that would be ludicrous for a discussion site. As I am sure you will have noted, they also are not community members.
And you are quite right, people can moderate as they see fit. Perhaps everybody who has read the comments in question agree with them?
Finally, the only way we can inform ACs when they are doing something wrong - which I don't think that they are in this case - is to make a comment. You have just done that. That will save anyone else having to do it.
Enjoy the rest of your day!

Not a community member? So he is not human? Has no rights? Can be kidnapped by Trumps Gestapo, sent to the camps for "undesirables" and liquidted in an administrative fashion? Not a personal attack? And you wonder why they call you a fascist!!

Strange how this position precisely mirrors that of the cretin Runaway1956, when it comes to the fictional sans-papiers.
