At first I thought you were kidding, but nope, those are all real updates. Those release notes are fun to read, it's inspiring me to write release notes with more personality.

I don't think he allways gets notification, that the CIA uses his project to spy on people ...

Pretty sure that if I found the CIA subverting my work, I'd be just as pissed off and quite a bit saltier in my release notes.

I was wondering the same thing. Not sure if I've ever seen any other release notes quite that 'vulgar' either.

Then again I've seen a few of Linus' emails... shrugs

Seems fairly restrained, think I'd be livid if the popularity of my project had been leveraged by The Man to screw over my users.
