@cwebber more back on this https://www.wewillfreeus.org/the-server-called-paranoia-defend-autistici-inventati-before-september-25/

@cwebber
We just had a very interesting season on this at #SoCraTes26

@cwebber https://noblogs.org and https://www.inventati.org have not been revoked. looks like only autistici.org has been affected.

Autistici/Inventati's domains have now been revoked. I updated the link in the above post with a wayback machine copy.

Every now and then someone tells me, "We have a decentralized naming system, it's called DNS!" and I say, no we don't, DNS is extremely centralized? And if that wasn't clear to you before, hopefully it's clear to you today.

@Marloezovic Iets voor NRC?

@cwebber the history link is down 😞

Link is gone. Domain wise.

@cwebber second link still does not work for me. server not found.

@cwebber
> There could come a time where the fediverse, or any decentralized network infrastructure, is a target as well if we don't sound the alarms now.

- As I explained in my quote for this post, alt OSes are already being targeted too, the US is turning into NK, and worst-case, could be locked to a state intranet with its own Red Star OS.

There could be a time also when Linux desktops and laptops are targeted like alt Android phones are being targeted right now.

@cwebber USA=1970s USSR, we became the evil empire we opposed.

@cwebber

This is a threatening development.

I say this with love, even though it's going to sound a lot like hate.

They desperately need a short and sharable description of the problem for people who aren't leftists and don't like leftists.

You know, something that points out why this this a bad thing for everyone, yada yada yada.

That blog post isn't sympathetic at all if you aren't another leftist.

@cwebber Thanks for sharing the news. I tried to donate to A/I about 12 hours ago via Liberapay, but their payment processor PayPal wouldn’t allow me to send money without creating an account, which I was not willing to do.

I tried again just now—and PayPal have locked A/I’s account. I hope no money of theirs got frozen. Let’s hope the Italian banking system is beyond the U.S. government’s reach for now and SEPA transfers still work.

And plugging NoBlogs can't harm I guess ?

https://noblogs.org/

Oh, I remember when I created my blog there, the onboarding was not smooth sailing. But if you're a little bit into technology you'd probably fine. 😇
