‘Your government is commiting human right abuses’ boy do I have another one for them
Don’t make me pull up the list of atrocities committed by the US.
Do it
dessalines.github.io/essays/us_atrocities.html
Smh look at what you made me do
Wall of text bigger then the great china wall.
Sad so much of this just links to wikipedia
Yeah that sucks a bit but you can at least find more sources on the Wikipedias.
Im sad so many of the links go to wikipedia
“The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude larger than to produce it.” – The Bullshit Asymmetry Principle
“On February 3rd, 2022, US troops murdered 6 children and 4 women during a raid in Syria.”
But if you read the article it says this: “Civilian casualties were caused when Qurayshi detonated a suicide vest and other explosives on the third floor of the building where he had taken refuge.”
How surprising, words bent to make a false statement. Don’t get me wrong though, the US does fucked up shit from time to time, however you’ll reach a larger audience if you don’t lie.
So we have one less point on a seemingly endless list. Thanks for finding this flaw.
Also in the article: “Some of the corpses in the area do not look like they died in an explosion. They look like they were hit by extremely heavy calibre gunfire”
Plus eyewitness claim they saw the chopper fire it’s gun at the building for a minute straight. So yes bullshit costs time to refute since I had to open the link, look for the article etc
This reads like a YouTube comment not an official company statement lmao

I can’t believe there’s a soviet union .su domain :'(
wait wa
The .su in the image. I looked it up and it really is for the USSR. Apparently it wasn’t decommissioned unlike the ones for Yugoslavia or Czechoslovakia since Russia mostly used .su at the time and it’s had enough people using it to push back against every attempt to close it I guess.
Imma cry now
There is always the good old Tor network for hosting services ;)

I’ve been thinking more and more about western power/influence of internet infrastructure, especially the simple cases of censorship. DNS and Domain Registry are big ones, another concern is of hosting and such with AWS.
I want to start looking into infrastructure (that technical people can use) that is in regions more hostile or less likely to waiver to western fuckery.
We should be thinking about this, I can share some p2p and blockchain projects… I like to look at import/export maps, and generally look for countries that are eastern aligned or non aligned at least.
At least for me it’s not a tech problem. I don’t think p2p and blockchain really address the issue directly. The issue is of western state power, and the combining influence of private capital. That affects all tech.
The most interesting project to me revolving around p2p has been peertube because it doesn’t require anything special for end users beyond JS. It can help distribute bandwidth without third party services. For blockchain, I have never seen a single useful thing involving it. I’m not even trying to exaggerate.
If you have projects share them though. I could be wrong and narrowly looking at both p2p projects and blockchain.
where should we park? parenti used namesilo, there is ENS (ethereum name service) and Tor also
There are plenty of options. If you value privacy, there are ‘vendors’ that accept XMR/Monero. Like njalla, incognet.io and xUID if you want .ru/.su domains. All accept XMR, and have non-KYC policies.
Privacy is not the concern here. Rather, the threat model is censorship from western hegemony. There are legal/economic considerations (sanctions) for where the company is operating as well.
incognet: based out of the U.S
xUID: Unknown, seems to be advertising hard to shady operations.
NJALLA: NevisNJALLA seems to be the most promising. The only slight concern comes from 1337 LLC, the company behind NJALLA, being based out of Nevis. A quick google search shows the government there is in support of NATO-aligned power: https://www.sknis.gov.kn/2022/03/08/st-kitts-and-nevis-joins-international-sanctions-against-russia-and-belarus
I might not understand the threat model fully, but, doesn’t “complete” privacy come with the added bonus of no censorship? If you sign up for a domain without KYC and with XMR, connected to a VPN, they would have a very hard time of proving where you are from.
One of those listed companies wouldn’t be able to exclude you from their platform, atleast based on your physical location. They could probably exclude you for a multitude of other reasons, if you break their ToS or something.
If it’s a question of whether or not you want to use a company, that supports the sanctions against Russia, or is a NATO country, I get that. There are not many choices then, atleast if you also want to stay somewhat private.
I hate Cloudflare from my guts but it is good these things don’t appear with them, non of my Russian clients got such BS from CF.
