I don't want to darken the mood but I bet government-coerced Github censorship is next
On the bright side, the government has been getting spanked by judges and the lawsuits resulting from their current actions could come back to bite them, i.e., entrenching the rights we deserve as free people in case law.
I worry about this to, all very well not using app stores but if Github starts censoring what's the plan?
Good question. Switch to more privacy friendly Tor hidden services which are decentralized.
Let me take a moment to say I'm an individual and not a big company. Code is speech and they can't take away from me how they coerce a large company. I'll host your code and I won't take it down without a fight to the end. https://git.happytavern.co
Then they change the law that code can be "hate speech".
And they can take me to court. The day the supreme Court rules Against me, is the day I either Leave or Will Not Comply. I'll probably leave and also not comply.
Need to obfuscate your identity.
And where to leave? Latin America seems to be the best option at the moment for now.
Fuck obfuscation. I have 2a here too. As far as I'm concerned, they can try to come and take it. If it's mine or I'm protecting my God given rights, I'm within those rights to defend myself.
I admire your courage 🤜🤛 , but in the end they have the bigger guns. So maybe a more subversive strategy would be successful.
Take care, bro. 🫂
Yea gotta be positive - I've felt a bit snarky this week - it's probably all the current bad news nagging my subconscious... #onwards
As long as no poltician gets the noose with his/her action it will not stop
That's what GitWorkshop.dev is for.
We need to move forward at pace, the tide I'd turning and the tools need to be ready.
Its already been happening the last 5+ years
