   @stux the fediverse need to be less domain reliant if it want to really be resistent to blocking

     Hmm.. 🤔

     TikTok can be banned, Twitter can be banned, Meta can be banned even Bluesky(major network parts via the official company) can be banned

     If they want to ban the Fediverse, they'll have to ban each server within the network of tens of thousands

     Somewhere in there is a point I guess :blobcatgiggle:

     @stux It's harder than that. Because we're not capitalist entities trying to do business in the US, the closest they can do to a ban is forcing us to move instances outside the US and blocking IP addresses. Which we can route around.

     The fediverse is truly the re-realization of the adage that the internet treats censorship as damage and routes around it.

     @stux I was in Beijing last week, and fedi domains weren't blocked. I have only tested a couple of them though. Google, Proton, WhatsApp, Telegram were blocked. That being said, fedi's spared because it's small. It's trivial for states to expand the blacklist by 10,000 more IPs and block the entire fediverse. A p2p solution is a lot more resilient.
