Sounds like the indian guy driving it with a joystick was a bit hungover. You’d think they’d screen that thing at the entrance of the cubicle farm where all these AI folk drive these from. AI is just “anonymous indians” for elmo’s grifting kind.
Lol… work brain seeped through. Pump those numbers up!
Deanonymized isn’t a risk with end-to-end FOSS-governed encryption (as compared to Meta’s mysterious backend that manages keypairs for whatsapp and messenger). Sealed Sender can even obfuscate the metadata of the recipient for further snooping hurdles. Nothing is perfect, and any participant can silently ex-filtrate conversation data with another camera.
Thanks, appreciated. I installed Nord on my linux box as well, then set that to openvpn technology and obfuscated servers which worked. I’d prefer to use their quantum-proof encryption but there’s no way to bypass VPN checks if one sets that. I think it’s a mistake on lemmy’s part to even put that hurdle up, but it is what it is. Having one’s real world identity tied to social media is a risk going forward. Data is the enemy.
Fellow muricans; stay out of metropolitan areas on July 4th. My guess is that we’re going to see the inevitable marriage of military and local law enforcement using the “iranian sleeper sell agents biden let loose in our country” angle instead. Faux news frontpage is laying the groundwork as of yesterday.
The irony of you posting this on lemmy, which won’t allow posting from a VPN or masked email addresses is not lost on me.
The amount of hoops I had to jump through to make this comment and maintain some semblance of privacy is infuriating but at least it’s not reddit I guess?
But do go on about your security standards…
Edit: BTW, you can set signal to hide your number completely. Combined with FOSS-based encryption keys on-device makes signal the only choice for trying to maintain freedom of expression globally.
Nothing will protect anyone from messaging with a snitch who knows how to screenshot though. Food for thought… get to know your neighbors now.
and #4: we dont believe if we take a bold step forward that our neighbors will show solidarity and endurance, which then puts us at risk of prosecution. A lot of us have kids to protect.
Dig deeper. This is Peter Thiel and Curtis Yarvin. Pootin is an accidental beneficiary.

Peter Thiel: “Good Ubu. Sit Ubu.”
They believe they are visionaries put on earth to make seismic waves in human history. Probably a mixture of some narcissim and psychopathy if I had to guess… dark triad types with enough money to censor the word “no” in their vicinity.
Agreed. One could argue when we stopped being a republic it was only a matter of time until the majority was dumbed down enough for xenophobia to be the primary issue for the common person.
Personally, I started running for the hills in early 2020 when I witnessed former friends drop their proverbial and physical masks overnight. That’s all the confirmation I needed that community didn’t and doesn’t exist.
I recently bought a trump bible and put it at my front door for gestapo repellant because my last hope is that those of us who survive long enough can reestablish our local communities and their priorities piece by piece. This will be as violent in it’s death as it was in it’s life and endurance via social camoflague is key at this stage. I’m writing this from my quantum-proof encryption VPN.
golf clap
Well-fuckin-said. I’m adding this to my notes. If this is how murica ends, I want to at least help spread the truth about it.
Peter Thiel and Curtis Yarvin are using trump and vance to install their vision of techno-authoritarianism and it’s darker than you could ever imagine.
Always use a VPN. Swallow your pride and buy a trump bible off amazon for your front entry area. It’s gestapo repellant. Yes, I’m serious.
After the immigrants, they’re going to round up people on SSRIs and have them work the fields as part of their “reparenting” sentence. RFK just put it on the table officially.
Keep your head down, blend in, and live to fight another day. This won’t be sustainable, but it’s going to be painful and ugly before the year’s out.
Project 2025 aims to suspend habeus corpus and deploy the military domestically by June 30th. Yes, I’m serious.

I hate to break it to you, but this is Peter Thiel and Curtis Yarvin’s party now. America died in November and gave way to some bastardized techno-autocracy-kleptocracy mutant.
Here’s a great piece to get up to speed quickly. Good luck out there! https://newrepublic.com/article/183971/jd-vance-weird-terrifying-techno-authoritarian-ideas
Thing is, I value my VPN-based privacy more than any other aspect of antisocial media… it’s beyond sketchy and worrisome that they shadowban anyone not willing to share their real identity. No thanks, CCP.
Here I am thinking I was a controversial asshole… nope, just a security nerd. I wonder if NordVPN’s new nordwhisper protocol will circumvent some of this?
I’ve also wondered if they’ve collected hardware hashes of the actual computer beyond IPv4. Never heard of CaptchaV3… I’ll have to read up on that.
Well thats 10x worse if you actually read the goals of the project.
This isn’t performative. It’s part of the plan. Porn and non-nuclear child-rearing families are absolutely in the crosshairs once they clear out the judicial “interference” and suspend habeus corpus.
Here’s the introduction (aka “Pillar I”) to the plan currently being implemented: https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_FULL.pdf
Some highlights:
From page 20 of the project: “Vought (officially in charge of OMB after being confirmed recently) writes that the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) should establish a “reputation as the keeper of ‘commander’s intent,’””
From page 21: " In Chapter 1, former deputy chief of staff to the President Rick Dearborn writes that the White House Counsel “must take seriously the duty to protect the powers and privileges of the President from encroachments by Congress, the judiciary, and the administrative components of departments and agencies.”
Page 28: “When a new President takes office, he will need to decide expeditiously how to handle any major ongoing litigation or other pending legal matters that might present a challenge to his agenda”…“, the President should hire a counsel with extensive experience with a wide range of complex legal subjects. Moreover, while a candidate with elite credentials might seem ideal, the best one will be above all loyal to the President”
Page 32, regarding the office of presidential personnel (DOGE): “Playing “bad cop” in a way that other White House offices cannot (including serving as the office that takes direct responsibility for firings and hirings).”
The real lesson of trump: you can get away with anything after you’ve conditioned your victims enough.
I read recently that all conservatism is is “I’m a good person and anyone who says otherwise deserved whatever I did to them.”
Pretty sure this is how it all started in the 1930s.
They DID put that roadblock in place. That’s kinda my point. You have to loosen a VPN’s security to post here (as I’ve had to do to reply). It says “no posting from VPN” in the lower left if one uses more advanced/secure encryption. They also don’t allow account creation from masked email platforms like fastmail.
