Offenes Internet: USA führen Netzneutralität wieder ein

https://netzpolitik.org/2024/offenes-internet-usa-fuehren-netzneutralitaet-wieder-ein/

@CynAq This is how it looks like, when you aggregate by instance count instead of user count.
So 58,99 % of the instances are federating with #Threads at the moment.

The discourse in the last few days regarding #Meta and #Threads gives the impression that the entire Fediverse is already blocking Threads. I wanted to take a look at the numbers and they speak a different language. The data source for my calculation is https://fedipact.veganism.social/?v=2.

Measured by user count, 76 % of all users are federated with Threads. Remaining instances with 24 % of users either block Threads or are limited (e.g. infosec.exchange).

@thisven sure I would. 🙂 but it was like 1 or 2 years ago and I don’t have any notes about it.

While running an SSH honeypot, I encountered an unusual incident. An adversary connected to the server and downloaded some kind of malware using wget from their webserver. Curious, I decided to investigate the webserver by accessing it with my browser. To my surprise, as the site loaded, an intense, strange and really loud sound, which was embedded in the website blared through my headphones, and startled me a lot for a few seconds.

Do you have similar stories?
