@PoliceStateUK then just don't!

• #Slixa moved to #Seitzerland due to #Cyberfacism in the #USA under the false pretenses that #FOSTA & #SESTA are made up on.

And #Europe needs to #unite under #values and in #solidarity, not under #racism, #christofacism & #cyberfacism.

• Because if we don't act in #solidarity as a #community that defends and uphelds #HumanRights and #CivilRights out of conviction, then we have no #moral ground to stand on, and we ain't better than #Putin's #Russia!

This fight isn't about #Ukraine or even #Finland, but about whether we allow #billionaires and/or #autocrats to run the world into the ground for their #profit or whether we as #society if not #species realize we only have this planet and that we've to "adult up" and get our shit together!

@Xeniax All attacks on #privacy are illicit and illegitimate per definition, and merely appealing at authorities is not gonna work.

• Instead encrypt harder by using real #E2EE with #SelfCustody [i.e. #PGP/MIME & #XMPP+#OMEMO), #decentralize and use @torproject / #Tor to normalize proper #ComSec!

Anything else is undue leniency in the face of #Cyberfacism!

@jathanasiou who could've seen that coming?

@alberg I consider every action to be recorded and livestreamed by hostole state actors unless physically impossible & proven otherwise!

• Personally I want "#Glassholes" to be outlawed and socially discriminated against harder than any "#SmartGun" and original #GoogleGlass user!

@icedquinn and because the #USA treats ist's citizens as #Paypigs aka. #DebtPeons by making it artifically hard to near-impossible to denaturalize themselves and demanding #taxes even for those that neither reside in nor seek any servces from it nor get represented.

• Obviously #Cyberfacism and #criminalization of #VictimlessCrimes like #drugs & #sexwork add on top of that.

@patterfloof assuming that #cyberfacist lawmakers actually cared and didn't just want to impose #Cyberfacism and abuse the them-created infrastructure for even more illicit and nefarious purposes.

@ely @niko @tauon Maybe some #EU-residing #Canadian citizen(s) needs to actually poke @noybeu about this.

• I mean, the #USA impose their #cyberfacism on other nations all the time even when that's literally a felony and illegal discrimination...

See this short Documentary in German by @NDR

@smote legally yes, practically no because already the #prohibitionist shite has already migrated away from that.

• Note the fine wording here, which only states "crypto asset service providers [...] maintaining anonymous accounts"...

Exchanges like #ChangeNow will just do #KYC and everyone who doesn't want/can will merely go to back alleys and swap that way or simply use non-EU exchanges and/or swap Monero into some shitcoins and/or the other way around.

• Obviously neither recommending nor vouching for any services for obvious reasons. All I'm saying is that it's never about #MoneyLaundering or #CTF, but merely exerting #Cyberfacism against #TechIlliterates whilst those that do want to facilitate illicit business have enough mules in traditional finance...

Again: #CashByMail is still not illegal...

@mit_scharf the problem with "threat scenarios" is that they tend to change quickly, non-consensual and without warning.

• Demanding any #PII [even by virtue of being correlateable through circumstances] to be able to use a service is inherently bad, espechally since there is no "legitimate interest" for that.

"#KYC" is the illicit activity! and #Signal acts as a controlled opposition by virtue of being a #proprietary, #centralized, #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider "solution" that subjects itself to a juristiction that has 0 #privacy laws and only #cyberfacism (see #CloudAct ) to boot...

• I find it more fatiguing and also expensive to try to workaround shite than to migrate folks to secure standards because that's a one-time investment that I'm willing to take vs. having to jump through hoops and paywalls to acquire a working #SIM (or #eSIM) anonymously and maintaining it.

It's just not in the cards TBH!

@kobilacroix or where #Billionaires managed to dumb down & #downgrade people's education that "#AI" becomes their new #Oracle and #Priest that controls them!

@w7voa IOW the #USA does #Cyberfacism and triples-down on "#vibe-based immigration and bordet controls"...

@silhouette @richi @signalapp @torproject

1. You completely miss the points! There is no "#TechnicalNecessity" to demand #PII like a #PhoneNumber - espechally for a "#privacy"-focussed messenger!

2. & 3. #Signal is able and willing to comply with #Cyberfacism and pushing a #Shitcoin (#MobileCoin) makes it trivial to criminalize the App for "illegal & unregilated banking". If #Moxie or @Mer__edith cared they'd yeet that thing (or didn't even integrate it to begin with!) to avoid the attention. And yes Signal does restrict the App functionality when using a phone number from #Russia & #Iran (among other nations), thus affecting not only those in need of safe comms but by sending a verification code to them, earmarking them for police & intelligence. Which bings.me to the 1st agrument.

4. #Tor has a stellar record in terms of stability, integrity and censorship circumvention. DIY'ing something instead if following almost two decades of solid progress is absurd and violates "don't roll your own crypto" as a rule!

5. Only with #SelfCustody can you protect your own data. Or do you really expect Staff from Signal to not talk when facing lifetime in jail? If they have the keys, they can decrypt it, thus their #E2EE is just a "#TrustMeBro!" concept. I mean, what prevents them from being forced into backdooring all comms to @icij as per #NSL? Any "guarantee" without self-custody is worthless by virtue of being unenforceable!

Signal pushing #TechPopulism instead of teaching folks that their #ComSec is worth diddly-piss wothout.#OpSec, #InfoSec & #ITsec is dangerous!

• And yes claiming "JuSt UsE sIgNaL!" is dangerous in the era of #Trump's #cyberfacist regime acting as it does (like with the #ICC)!

Not to mention there are better options that don't do that shite (i.e. demand PII) and just work. @monocles / #monoclesChat & @delta / #deltaChat for example can adapt way better to said risks and ain't run by a #VCmoneyBurningParty!

@bert_hubert the sheer absurdity of this case shows how #CloudAct and the #cyberfacism the #USA has ready to roll can be weaponized.

• Note that this is not the first time the #ICC got attacked by the #US for doing it's job, nor that this is surprising.

The problem is well known for years! and the fact that #GAFAMs ain't banned & sanctioned by the #EU for conducting illegal #espionage is a sign of #weakness!

@tante that is intentional!

• Because the #TechBros want #illiterate "#Consoomers" and hate confident people.

That's why they are transmisogynist and racist POSes: They don't accept or even tolerate people who are more intelligent, more confident or just flatout better than them!

• And a #Broligarchy needs to make themselves look like "wizards" to justify their weaponization of #tech, #sexism and #patriarchy as pillars for their thrones.

They don't want people to be able to #DIY or #repair or have any #knowledge, but to take the #Enshittification as "law of nature" and being dependant on an "Oracle" as a fact of life.

• They fear people who are able to evidence that "a different world is possible" and that's why they push for #CyberFacism and #PoliceState hard, wanting to kill #SolarPunk as they want to rule a #CyberPunk #dystopia that is closer to the world of #GString than #Cyberpunk2077!

@dangillmor #Funfact: thanks to @EUCommission bowing before #US #cyberfacism this also applies to every #flight into and out of the #EU!

@aral worst part: @EUCommission et. al. support the #USA's #Cyberfacism re: #PNR|s!

@landley @jschauma @ryanc @0xabad1dea I think redistributing the /8 subnets that #DoD holds hostage would've been a strategy, alas I do expect the Orange Tyrant to fuck up the #Internet by messing up #IANA & #ICANN, breaking it with #cyberfacism…
