Authoritative answer for "hexbear.net" is provided by a Cloudflare DNS server. They're an American company so the feds could call them up and do whatever they want with it. Okay, so maybe our admins use a different nameserver. The ".net" zone is administered by Verisign, an American company, so actually they could call them up and do whatever and that's it. Actually most of the root DNS nameservers are in

Okay, no DNS, everyone just saves the IP address of the server in France and it never changes. Idk if the Americans could force the French government to cooperate and get them to seize the servers or get the cloud server provider to do the same..... but I don't think it's unlikely. Those are just the conventional, legal ways to do it. But an enormous amount of internet infrastructure is in the US or administered by a US company and we know from Snowden that the American security state has implants all throughout internet infrastructure. And we also know the NSA hoards exploits and has a department (Tailored Access Operations) specializing in hacking into things

If they really wanna do it, they can find a way

Idk I'm just riffing but tbh computer security is kinda a myth or at least extremely difficult to actually pull off building secure computer systems

This is why China, Iran, now Russia, the DPRK, and others basically have a separate but still connected internet from the main US-dominated one and are prepared to disconnect at any time
