     No, that it supports the same censorship agenda and is working with the US government regarding what to censor.

     If you want the old government censorship back, it's great!
     
     Like #Reddit, #HackerNews, and #Meta.
     
     But it might be time to step up to freedom.

If you treat this all as gatekeeping to keep out a certain type of social parasite, it becomes tolerable. I went to an Urbit convention and everybody I met there was the best kind of person.

     @Moon@shitposter.club Urbit is insane and retarded. Nostr is interesting but has some serious issues of its own that makes its utilization difficult and just kinda gross. Of all the current solutions, I think the decentralized, independent, numerous client-server model that the Fediverse is built on is the most polished, user-friendly, and intuitive. It's not perfect, something more P2P would be ideal, but also adds lots of complexity and difficulty. I keep going back to SSB as an interesting protocol, but I've not really seen any good implementations of it. @amerika@freespeechextremist.com @StefanEJones@dice.camp @adam@elonsucks.org

     @adiz @amerika @adam @StefanEJones I have friends that will never use SSB because the cryptographic signing means all your messages are non-repudiable. Same problem with Nostr. You are signing all your messages with a strong cryptographic proof.

     @amerika@freespeechextremist.com SSB is a really interesting concept. Basically device to device, peer to peer. Just like how humans traditionally communicate. E.g., you send a bunch of messages, they live on your device. You and I hang out, your device syncs your messages with my device and vice-versa---you get all the messages I got, I get all the messages you got. The next time I or you meet up with someone else, all those messages sync/federate with those other people, and everything flows down the grape vine. @Moon@shitposter.club @adam@elonsucks.org @StefanEJones@dice.camp

     @Moon@shitposter.club But, seriously, the only folks who should worry or be affected by non-repudiate hash signing are morons who put their real face and real legal name on the internet for all to see. Kind of a moot point, because if the state wants to track you or find you they're going to do so either way---not by connecting a hash to an identity. There are so many other ways and other concerns about tracking or identity deobfuscation than this. @amerika@freespeechextremist.com @adam@elonsucks.org @StefanEJones@dice.camp

     @adiz @amerika @adam @StefanEJones you can stay anonymous if you take care to not attach your public identity to your ssb identity. but if somehow you or someone else can derive that identity, it makes all your messages now incriminating. the issue is that the longer you go, the more likely you are to make one tiny mistake that blows all your opsec 100% away.

     @p makes a convincing argument that speech is a binary:
     
     1. You have total free speech, or
     2. You are on the path to a hugbox
     
     The latter always supports brand and corporate interests.

     I gave up on that. The only way to make it work is to make it impossible for opposition to be tenable. The only way to do that is to make sure it is valued. The only way to do that is to make sure that people have it and know what they are missing without it.

     I don't have a lot of hope in that, either, unfortunately. I think people will be people. The upside of this is that there are facets of human nature that make it work: people do not often have a widespread cultural appreciation for something abstract, but if they have something, they will push back against it being taken away. Making that freedom concrete and letting people enjoy that freedom gets them behind its preservation when it's under threat.
