No and no. You called this upon yourself when you put in that time bomb. With regard to stable/jessie, I propose we use our rights, but try to make up for ignoring your wishes by trying to reduce the flow of bug reports to you in another way, for example by the additional URL in the About box I suggested by my earlier email. Please reconsider. With regard to future versions of Debian, again I think you should be more clear in your license terms. Don't pretend to publish it as free software, but then use pretty "please", time bombs and cursing to get users to not use their freedoms.
