I think there's a certain amount of cavalier resignation.

I don't want you all to end up in Gitmo. Even if I don't always agree with your guys takes, there's already so few communists and anarchists in the West as is =(

We'll need organizers and teachers of history and theory to survive the next couple years.

Look on the bright side. Many theorists did their best work in prisons from which they never escaped! thonk-cri

Pigpoopballs loses something in the transition to text.

Edit: pigpoopballism, lol

If we actually wanna be serious about it, we should move the site off of the clearnet

I2P maybe

Even if you access this site over Tor, probably like half the exit nodes are run by feds to do traffic correlation

Yeah, I’ve been thinking this for a long while now. Could we open a serious discussion?

Edit: Not even cuz of trump but for opsec and resiliency as a whole.

Would be in favor of this, especially if things start looking bad

Idk how federation would work, if at all though

[–] HumanAnarchist@hexbear.net 10 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I dunno, moving to something peer to peer would be my suggestion. We may loose federation but what do we use that for anyway besides trolling libs?

[–] PaX@hexbear.net 10 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Whatever it is, we should do it over one of those anonymizing overlay networks

Just putting the site on one of those is a start at least

We may loose federation but what do we use that for anyway besides trolling libs?

Well..... yeah lol, idk, I used to be more positive on federation but usually all I see is the same Reddit sludge outside of Hexbear and Lemmygrad

At least some people have come over. If we take this step we're basically gonna be more isolated than ever

[–] HumanAnarchist@hexbear.net 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I dunno. The new freenet seems promising for ease of use and integration with federation but idk how they do with privacy. Veilid seems to have the reverse problem. I’m sure there’s a solution but we should have a real discussion on what that is.

[–] PaX@hexbear.net 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Personally I'd want to go with something proven and widely in-use already like I2P or maybe Tor

Especially cuz of the relative ease of moving over cuz we don't have a lot of devs

I don't know much about the new Freenet tbh, I used to be into the old one though, cool as hell tech tbh but bad implementation

[–] HumanAnarchist@hexbear.net 3 points 4 months ago

The new one is under development and looks interesting, but this really isn’t the place to get into it. If someone else doesn’t I’ll make a post in the next few days.
