you think just posting on the fediverse hasn't already got you on the list?
Didn't it get revealed that anyone who used a certain Linux forum got automatically added to an FBI surveillance list? Everyone here is definitely already on a list lol
Edit: it was the NSA, not the FBI: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/07/the-nsa-thinks-linux-journal-is-an-extremist-forum/
Edit 2: for clarity, that article is from 2014 so it isn't exactly recent but if they were doing it in 2014 they probably still do something similar now.
Wow, really strong "only terrorists use encryption" vibes.
The great thing is, if everyone's on the list, no one is!
A lot gets you on that list. Practically the entire country is on that list
What was that one story about the wow server infiltrated by agents who ended up surveiling each other? That's real right? I can't tell anymore
Even visiting without an account is probably enough - whoopsie, I committed a tewworism.
I’ve only been here a year and I know I’m on at least two.
I’m from the fed. We just put everyone on the list pre-emptively. It’s a big list, and you’re all on it!
