@xj9 @ceejbot @bhaugen
Just skip the threat & move straight to #boycott #Microsoft #github. There's much more evil than just #ICE to consider:
https://github.com/yacy/yacy_search_server/issues/314
To arm the Israeli military w/ #facialrecognition to use against the #Palestinians they oppress is pretty evil.
A sensible replacement amid the #deleteGithub movement is @codeberg

@Br0m3x #DuckDuckGo has a #privacy abuser for CEO (who previously founded a Names DB, a svc to get naive ppl to leak the contact info of their friends). #DDG also feeds privacy abusers #Verizon, #Yahoo & #microsoft. DDG was also caught violating their own privacy policy.

the only #privacy-respecting #searchengine in the world (searxes.eu.org) is currently down. Hope this is temporary! It's a sad state of affairs that #Tor users are dependant on this one search engine.

Instead of supporting #Reddit (a #centralized #corrupt power abuser w/#censorship shenanigans), who then empowers #Amazon (thus promoting #facialrecognition, #climatedenial, & #sweatshops), it's more sensible (and ethical) to direct users to #Lemmy:

Amnesty International: "Israel has a history of carrying out serious violations of international humanitarian law in Gaza, including war crimes, with impunity and displaying a shocking disregard for Palestinian lives.

Suggestions for Reddit alternatives wanted. #Reddit is #centralized on #Amazon AWS (thus feeds a #privacy abuser). @reddit@query.org also has chronic #censorship issues that have gotten out of control.

Ok #Revolut, I think we are done here, dropping app support for rooted ROMs is one thing (even though no other way to access your account) but selling our data with only opt out via support chat and latest app ver (can't use anyway), is another.

GitHub takedown made it to the BBC news

CloudFlare is asking for charitable donations & I find it very sickening:
https://opencollective.com/cloudflarecollective#section-about
#CloudFlare Inc. makes fortunes as they *exclude* ppl from visiting the websites of other ppl, and then they enter an *inclusive* community to help themselves to a spot next to good-cause non-profit orgs.
CF scumbags have a corporate tip jar that sits next to the tip jar of projects like #XR. They're as oblivious to their harm as a Trump supporter.
#WTF.
searxes.eu.org is #offline ATM. Bummer! Hope it's temporary.

Just discovered toot tui and it rocks. https://toot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
reddit is #centralized on Amazon AWS. Amazon has been caught financing #climatedenial & it's pretty well known that Amazon is the world's biggest investor in #facialrecognition, and thus #privacy abuse.
The reddit #censorship problem is so chronic they actually have robots that detect whether an oppressed user reposts a #censored post in their own sub. #Reddit then suppresses that speech everywhere.
So e.g. you post something political in a sub with a "no politics" rule, it gets silently blocked, then you post in a sub where politics are welcome and #reddit silently removes the post even though it's rule-abiding.
*silent* non-tranparent censorship is maliciously insideous.
gotfreefax.com has been down for months. Anyone know of a good replacement #fax service?

Twitter needs to come clean about exactly what happened, when, and to how many people. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2019/10/twitter-uninentionally-uses-your-2fa-number-targeted-advertising

@ilpianista Plz don't use #github. #Microsoft is not a good company to empower. In addition to these issues:
https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium/issues/795
MS gave $100k to the Cloakroom to hide meetings between conservative US republican politicians & corporations.
If I find a bug on a github-hosted project, I do not report it b/c of all the red tape in loggin in.
