I strongly encourage everyone to move away from US-based services for you privacy and safety.

American here: No, you need to move it out of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States
….
i also recommend avoiding Israel, Russia (and most of the former USSR), and China… also India and the entire middle east…
So what's left, smoke signals?

i think germany and some Scandinavian countries have strong data privacy laws
I wouldn’t trust my data with Zionists either. That’s the same as giving it to Israel.
you seem to be conflating the actions of a few with the entire country being zionists.
In Germany it is the government and the people who are Zionists. Even their left wing is disturbingly pro-Zionist.

ok boomer
There is no way Canada stays in at this rate. 5 eyes suicide.
please clarify.
what’s 5 eyes suicide?
why isn’t canada part of the 5 eyes?

US is killing the deal antagonizing Canada, Europe and indirectly Australia and NZ
ah yes, the old “posting the same link you just posted” trick
Oh I didn't follow the other link. It's an intelligence sharing network. What is confusing you?
why your life is so boring you have to attempt to troll people.
just so weak, so lame
There is no way in hell. None, that you read and understood those comics. Change your name. You're a disgrace probably named after the show. Alan Moore hates you.
I hope TF so.
I'm in the US and have been working on that since the start of last year.
Crazy how the federal government has the power to do this under Trump, but lacked the ability to rein these companies in for foreign misinformation under Obama and Biden.
And how Republicans lost their fucking minds when the Biden administration essentially said "hey Twitter I see you're not enforcing your own TOS on some of these covid misinformation users, could you do something about that?"
"Conservatives" when Democrat admin:
"OH MY GOD, CENSORSHIP FOR BEING A REPUBLICAN!!! WE NEED COMMITTEE INVESTIGATIONS! TWITTERGATE! THE TWITTER FILES!!!"
"Conservatives" when Republican admin:
"Teehee, censorship is good when it's against my enemy!"
The sale of tiktok to Larry Ellison was a Biden era project to censor speech about Israel that got coopted by Trump because they started it in like the last few months of Biden's presidency (because Israel was making him look bad). I think all of these assholes want to control speech on the internet, for different but equally stupid and evil reasons.
Both Obama and Biden knew how to wield incredible amounts of power and they used it to mostly do nothing other than bomb brown kids and use their influence over the media to convince people that they're trying to get the zionists to cooperate (they didnt acturally do that)
Fuck ICE
Pretty sure you’ve been on their shitlist since the 60s, Kurt.
Is there any progress on a peer to peer alternative to the internet? I’m not talking TOR, I’m talking full mesh, as in the hardware backbone is peer to peer as well
Yes! It's a fairly new, but nonetheless impressive system called Reticulum. If you're familiar with mesh networks, it is essentially an entire networking stack you can flash to many devices, even an ESP-32. It has the ability to use existing infrastructure as well, so it can bridge the gap between mesh nodes and the greater internet on its own.
Personally, I have one ESP32 node for Meshtastic, and another for Reticulum. They run on the exact same hardware, like a prebuilt Meshtastic node you can buy online is one firmware flash away from (hypothetically) cutting out the ISP. As per usual for these systems, they're completely decentralized and under the control of the community. Truly a piece of software I would love for every modern router to ship with.
As far as TOR relevance goes, it doesnt use TOR itself, but the infrastructure behind it has anonymity built in through a similar node system. I dont understand the full scope of how deep it runs, but these links below should be able to shed light.

Technically, I think the Internet is considered a mesh.
I know of nothing trying to replace the Internet, but some wireless projects like Amateur Radio Emergency Data Network (technically can't use encryption on amateur radio bands), Meshtastic (messaging), MeshCore (messaging), and Reticulum (messaging, simple pages, BBS-like stuff). Any community could also try to set up a wifi mesh with something like the BATMAN protocol. Wireless meshes have all sorts of problems though. They must be carefully planned to get decent bandwidth because everyone's using the same "wire" (radio bands). Also, governments could easily jam or DoS them.
I'm not sure that helps this particular problem, since doing the hardware differently doesn't necessarily do much to prevent them from collecting information.
The Nationalsozialisten issued hundreds of subpoenas to local businesses to unmask Jews that criticized the Gestapo.

usa: sorry, best we can do is "if not fascism why fascism shaped"
