From https://ffmpeg.org//pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2024-November/335601.html :
| We have seen batteries being exchanged by explosives by the mosad injuring
| members of a terrorist organization and probably a few innocent people.
| You may agree with fighting terror but do you agree with explosives,
| in maybe the phone someone of your familiy bought on ebay ?

> This is pointlessly aggressive, even if it's an opinion.

developer and earliest member of VideoLAN here, I have every moral 
justification to be furious at Michael.

> It added nothing to your argument,

> so please refrain from doing it again.
