Goodbye Discord communities. 😿

This is a direct assault on queer and marginalized communities from Big Tech and Western governments. This is surveillance and suppression I’m the guise of “security”

" I have not gotten the impression that outrage among the citizenry is a problem for this administration," Shannon said. "I think money is a problem for this administration, so I'm leaning in on that front."

Spannend. Meine Story mit Lesetipps (Big Tech muss weg & Krieg der Medien), die ich zum DID bei Insta gepostet hatte (ich bin da noch, um zu versuchen, Leute da raus zu holen), ist weg. Ich hab's jetzt nochmal gepostet, denn noch weigere ich mich, denen zu unterstellen, sie hätten die entfernt. Im Kalender im Archiv seh ich sie ganz klein, wenn ich auf das Datum klicke kommt nur ein schwarzer Slide und die Info, dass die Story nicht mehr verfügbar ist ...

Another reason to not use #Google - they'll readily share your data with the government and give you minimal opportunities to respond. It's not worth it.
