Seems like a textbook example of why federation is better than something owned by some rich assholes

I think about famous photo of the pirate bay cofounder.

These are the people we want to manage the internet, not someone who blocks information because it pisses off their billionaire friends.

Meanwhile Russia and China are making their own little "internets" for their citizens to make a nice neat little box where nary a bad thought can find it's way into the public sphere. And here in the U.S. we've been fighting off such measure for over 2 decades but now the Republicans have the house, the Senate and their useful idiot, they can go to town.

It's gonna be high time to start looking more heavily into mesh networks than ever before.

Fighting such fuckery? You guys have been leading the charge since Bush. Ever hear of the PATRIOT Act? Gimmie a break, man.
