    I absolutely agree on business model for all these wokesters. There is ZERO chance I will buy another Apple product ever in my lifetime. When I need a new phone, it is Samsung.
    That illustrates the problem. You'll get a Samsung phone that runs google android. Google is doing the same thing (and is really far more evil than apple).

    Begging? Most of my systems run in Azure but I suspect that have lawyer speak in their Ts & Cs that would allow them to ban content based on their on judgement.
    Yep. They're quite woke too. They'd cave to leftist pressure before most people noticed they were being pressured.

    Not necessarily, but it's been years since I looked at Freenet. I may have to research it again.
    No doubt spoofing and the like could be applied. Point being we're not dealing with some High School communication instructor teaching network communications 101. These folks gotta clue. They see gobbs of traffic going somewhere they'll go there as well to see what it is. Once they figure that out they can/will modify filters/blocks to stop that traffic. Cat/Mouse ad nausem

    I think you've been watching too many movies. I'll just keep on living my simple country life, and leave all the high tech crap for you city folk to worry about.

    He says while using his computer to post on an online gun forum which is nothing more that another form of social media :laughing:


    Worth noting: A major factor in the civil war was the fact that the north had telegraph wires strung up across large portions of the area which allowed communications to travel where they needed to be in a matter of hours instead of days or even weeks.

    If you don’t think the ability to communicate with a large audience is important in a fight for truth and the soul of this nation, I’m not sure what to tell you. But the fact that you come to this forum to communicate proves your comment about “just using a phone” is not true and it’s inability to communicate effectively to the necessary audience is why you are here.

    After everything gets relocated, I agree it is good to be rid of them.

    As for the hosting angle, agreed. If your business is anywhere on their radar, you better have a move off plan RFN and start executing it.

    Correct me if I’m wrong but wouldn’t that just be switching evils to Google?

    Well that technology is expensive and slow to deploy....It's thwarted easily by simple methods.

    You might be suprised by what can be done nowadays, and how easily it can be achieved...

    For example, imaging having a pair of glasses which can practically read someone's mind just by looking at them (close enough, anyway), and providing real-time intel in HUD? Or can provide positive-ID on someone, even at a distance, even wearing a balaclava?

    Think that's impossible with current tech? Think again...

    Oh I have no doubts what you're alluding too. But... That still takes active surveillance. Chip technology does not have that limitation. Wanna know where some one is? Punch in their chip ID, click "submit" satellite communications blink and fractions of a second later you have subjects precise location. Click [OBSERVE] on the computer screen and the nearest set of cameras to the subject comes to life rotating to locate subject while simultaneously bringing subject into sharp focus thereby enabling facial recognition process to confirm and lock on subject for continual observation.

    Since I come from the era before tech I have to ask who is their customer? I get my answer when I see my wife and sons on their smart phones and I'm reminded of Pogo. We have met the enemy and he is us.

    I use a flip phone that doesn't text, drives people at work crazy, but I can read the phone numbers. I just say call me. That said I do use the internet and like it. I would never have been able to do the resto work on the 68 Dodge Charger I have posted here without the internet and access to the Charger forum.

    Not sure how we can separate the customer from facebook or twitter without losing good things like this forum.

    Technology isn't a bad thing. What is bad, is how people utilize that technology.

    Not sure if this made it to the conversation, but AWS dropped parler.


    Maybe godaddy will host?
    Seems to work great for censorship.....

    Looks like Parler is down. I get an error message when I try to go there. Not that it was ever very useful for me, but still. Corporate censorship is just as insidious as government censorship. Leftists are cheering it right now, not even comprehending the power they're giving the very corporations and billionaires they vilify.
