I had no idea what this is, Google said: > Autistici/Inventati provides internet support to activists and collectives coming from the world of grassroot and social movements. US administration says: > https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0616 > ... an Italy-based entity that supplies specialized digital architecture, tools, and services for Antifa cells and other violent far-left extremists ...

lol. In case you didn’t notice, dissent is terrorism, failure to kiss the ring is treason, and if you want to play in the US market there are some cryptocurrency purchases you might want to do, as a hedge against unfavorable tariffs. Also, for only 100KUSD you can join the official US insider trading chat. I wish any of this was an exaggeration.

Once again, the crime is providing encrypted email accounts, chat and video conferencing. Uncle Sam really, really, really wants to terrify as many providers are possible into letting them peek into your personal correspondence. This is why decentralized end to end encryption methods are so important

Everybody and their grandmother uses their services. Are you organizing a non-profit rehearsal space? Create a mailing list there. This is grim. I guess this only works because those are foreign servers so freedom of speech does not apply but Italy is doing their bidding?

We are still living in the shadow of the world the Patriot Act created and continues to shape. The most consequential legislation of my lifetime.
