If I had to guess, Adrian, I'd say your work has come to be the bane of a
very angry Swedish script kiddie who can't get his 'sploit to work
anymore....

I could be wrong, but I've never heard such vitriol from anyone who I'd
consider to be a security professional.

There is something to be said for having people that are allowed to
comment on postings you use be required to verify an email at least
and allow it to be posted at the moderators discretion to curb some of
these trolling comments.  Trolls will learn (sometimes) that if other
readers are able to respond to them directly rather than just by
populating a comments thread they may want to think twice about doing
so the next time.  Aside from that step I agree with everyone else on
ignoring them being the only real avenue for dealing with that kind of
abuse.

BTW your videos are excellent and it is often much easier to
understand what you've recorded than a README that the author threw
together for something that they know well because they created the
project/tool/program, but an end user is starting from scratch with.
I appreciate your work and would hate to see something like that
discourage you in the least.
