This comms near-constant links to media coverage of what the Empire is up to. I’d like to see some information about what the Alliance is doing about it, so I can work out who to fund and raise awareness for. How organized is the Euro equivalent of the EFF? The Can/Aus equivalent?

The term to use is filsharing

Tried asking on the comm’s Signal chat?

These articles always get me thinking about filesharing doomsday. That theoretical point in time when our governments go full China and enact their own national firewalls/other scheme of effective P2P connection surveillance; when you need to know for certain that you’ve downloaded enough (and that your storage game is good enough) to last decades of leisure time, perhaps even a lifetime’s worth.

Note the complete 180 in priorities since the Russian’s arrest. It may as well be a FAGMAN product soon.

Send one my way, please

Seconding this. The figures are too rubbery for headlines like this to have any meaning.

The public internet is for P2P exchange as well, no matter how much gov/corp tries to stymie it. I2P has its merits, but it would be sad to see it take off purely because people ceded the former territory for an obscure network layer.

Nothing surpsises me about a single small sectional interest (football copyright) being able to wreak such havoc and inequity on a whole nation. Italian standards of governance are a joke.

One of the best YT lectures on censorship I’ve come across is Ada Palmer’s “Why We Censor: from the Inquisition to the Internet”. It lays out the universal nature of such regimes, including their slapdash conception and setup, and the arbitrary and indiscriminate targeting they engage in thanks to how co-optable they are.
