Lum commented, "[Nice try, fuckface](https://archive.ph/C6r28)." Macrina described the request as "[despicable](https://archive.is/ylLMT)."

Quintin accused him of trying to "[use Dan Kaminsky's name to worm his way back into the hacker community](https://archive.is/wxKUC)," promised to "[burn everything down before giving one ounce of forgiveness to serial rapists like Jacob](https://archive.is/gXtDH)" who "[are all weeds in the proverbial garden of our communities](https://archive.is/piLJf)," and liked a tweet suggesting that he be [blocked from using **MuckRock**](https://archive.is/cmVGT).
