And if this goes on long enough, we’ll have samizdat resistance ‘zines typewritten and passed around at dead drops to avoid ISPs having data any to give up to a warrant/less search, or metadata to trace the authorship

Vladimir Bukovsky summarized the samizdat process as follows:

“I write myself, edit myself, censor myself, publish myself, distribute myself, go to jail for it myself”

I’d rather not find out what else that future entails
