The original discoverer is undoubtedly Jean-Marc Levy-Leblond:

Jean-Marc Levy-Leblond: "D'autre part, nous savons aujourd'hui que
l'invariance de la vitesse de la lumiere est une consequence de la
nullite de la masse du photon. Mais, empiriquement, cette masse, aussi
faible soit son actuelle borne superieure experimentale, ne peut et ne
pourra jamais etre consideree avec certitude comme rigoureusement
nulle. Il se pourrait meme que de futures mesures mettent en evidence
une masse infime, mais non-nulle, du photon ; la lumiere alors n'irait
plus a la "vitesse de la lumiere", ou, plus precisement, la vitesse de
la lumiere, desormais variable, ne s'identifierait plus a la vitesse
limite invariante. Les procedures operationnelles mises en jeu par le
"second postulat" deviendraient caduques ipso facto. La theorie elle-
meme en serait-elle invalidee? Heureusement, il n'en est rien ; mais,
pour s'en assurer, il convient de la refonder sur des bases plus
solides, et d'ailleurs plus economiques. En verite, le "premier
postulat" suffit, a la condition de l'exploiter a fond."

Many years ago, when Jean-Marc Levy-Leblond had already been making
money by teaching that Einstein's second (light) postulate is
redundant, other discoverers, e.g. Tom Roberts, were still applying
for a Government grant in the Ministry of Silly Walks (Einstein
Criminal Cult):

Tom Roberts, 15 years ago: "Well sir, I have a silly walk and I'd like
to obtain a Government grant to help me develop it....I think that
with Government backing I could make it very silly."
