The real lesson of the US attack on autistici/inventi is that WE ARE NEXT. Mastodon servers mostly do not run things like PRISM, are often based outside the US, and compete directly with the Tech Bros and their ad and tracker supported shit for an audience.
Also lots of anti-Trump activism here.
If we don't fight for autistici/inventi today, we will have to fight for Mastodon tomorrow. Domino effects are real with Fascists as we saw at the start of WWII.
@LukefromDC

@regendans @baedling @LukefromDC I don’t really see any specific actions to take unless we see “overcompliance”..?

The flood of cash from fossil fuel funded fascists to make this happen is getting truly astronomical.

Thanks, that gives some clarity.
With my instance is actually interesting. Team is in Estonia, data hosted in the Netherlands, TLD from Isle of Man so I am not sure what gets precedence here. Isle of Man is not EU, Estonia and the Netherlands are - that also matters.
Maybe it's not the worst idea for US-based instances to at least explore what it would mean to move everything. And all others to at least have a plan in place as well.
A voluntary user database that lives independently might also be an idea? Just in case everything gets down at once people can be reached and the community won't fall apart at once.
This should be a bigger fediverse-wide conversation.
@thisislieven @gbargoud I think we can expect that in the future, servers hosting content attacking any one government will have to be either total darknet/torified or hosted in nations that regard the target nation as an enemy.
Thus, US left servers might be hosted in Cuba while far-right Cuban exiles would use US hosting.

@LukefromDC not just ww2, the things considered normal now were absurd months ago, and the things normal then were absurd months before that.

@LukefromDC And here I was worried about my Protonmail account. Wasn't even considering fedi.

@LukefromDC any tangible ideas on how to fight for A/I? i've been wanting to fight this but idk what can be done.
@baedling @LukefromDC I think that if you are American and you are a customer of these guys you might have basis to sue.
It's going to be what my sign is about tomorrow...
"What they're doing to Autistici/Invitati should scare the shit out of you," is what I was thinking of going with unless something better comes to mind or is suggested.

@baedling @LukefromDC Came here to ask basically this.
I'm not a technical (or in any way computery) person, so is there anything us normies can do?
@clickhere @baedling @LukefromDC One of the easiest and best first step is probably to sign up for Tuta or Proton or something and start using it.
Start taking your privacy very seriously. Learn as much as you can about how much you are sharing and how to stop.
And I think they suggested trying to make as many people as aware of this as you can. If not, that should help also.
Insist on the type of communication systems they provided and don't settle.

@LukefromDC So what do we do? I figured this already, but I'm not very activist. -

@LukefromDC And let me foresee there's more than two years of all this ahead - including also how next US elections are actively and deeply manipulated already.

@LukefromDC well the world would probably be better without social media at all....
