  • I donate to the internet archive every year, but they need to decentralize their data into a distributed p2p protocol fucking ASAP.

    Trying to fight fascism in oligarch-owned courts is a losing battle. All it takes is one corrupt judge and we lose the library of Alexandria. Centralizing an “internet archive” in any jurisdiction was always a mistake. I don’t want to fund court battles. I want to donate hard drives, CPU’s, and bandwidth for the rest of my life.

    The longer they do not do this, the less value I see in my donations, and the more I feel they are not proper custodians of the data they hold. It feels like they aren’t taking the risks, or their value, seriously.








  • The plan all along was to monopolize tracking for themselves; to maintain their data harvesting advantage, while limiting other ad tech companies.

    The reversal is likely a response to the various antitrust suits — potentially losing chrome &/or android — killing the advantage for Google search and putting them in the same boat as external ad tech companies and data brokers.

    Could also be due to gov/political pressure, as most mainstream political parties are using big data and analytics to run PsyOps on voters, especially fascist/conservative parties like the MAGAzis.
