Just a little.
I understand your cynicism, but I think Icerat is doing a good thing right now.
Dogs are not allowed in the Dog Park. People are not allowed in the Dog Park. It is possible you will see hooded figures in the Dog Park. Do not approach them.
There has indeed been a discussion about amnesty for banned posters. Alas, the consensus has gone against the idea, once again.

My jury remains out.
I see a bloke who's just said that he lost his business and income due to long covid illness. At the same time, a convenient idiot starts a thread that results in people saying they'd put money towards the forum to help it thrive.
If it hadn't been me started that thread I'd be calling stooge - the timing was impeccable and he now has a tidy little sum to go on with. And as for changing to XYZ 3.13, nobody will know if that even happens. The actual changes made to date have been emptying a few caches and adding https, which as I pointed out, is free.

I was going to answer that next.
Stanky, a sockpuppet is your only chance, but given your posting style I suspect you'll be caught in short order.
Back when I was a mod, I was advised that the admin team had methods of detecting socks other than a simple IP address match. I wouldn't recommend it.

What's the worst that could happen? He gets banned again - no loss at all.
