pls make 🗃️s 1st.

The U.S. State Department and U.S. Treasury placed the anarchist-aligned Italian tech support collective Autistici/Inventati on the "specially designated global terrorist" list on Wednesday. This designation makes it illegal for Americans to engage in any "transactions" with Autistici/Inventati
[…]
Autistici/Inventati offers free email accounts, web hosting, videoconferencing, and other communications services on request to those who can demonstrate need and "share our principles of anti-fascism, anti-racism, anti-sexism, anti-homophobia, anti-transphobia, and anti-militarism." Unlike commercial email providers, Autistici/Inventati stores only the bare minimum of user data and doesn't peek into users' inboxes, making it appealing to "paranoids," as the group describes itself.

Now I know which service to sign up to!

Don't be stupid. If you are an American be very careful. This has the possibility to connect you to "terrorists" and give the government enough to go after you. Who knows for sure but be careful out there folks.

im not saying theres no risk but they are going after the infrastructure not people using it (which they use as excuse), it looks like setting stage for weaponizing this law when elections come and people organize peaceful protests against the government

Please take a look at my bio b4 u respond.
I am not fond of Nazis.
⅔ of the planet is antifascists. So if you think using a privacy respecting service is “terrorism,” I suggests you cease interactions with me.
I have insecure 📧 to send. So buzz off if otherwise.

Sounds like you either have a chip on your shoulder or cant read well, but i am saying the government, not i, will call you a terrorist and use that to target you.

But sure, rage against allies. Whatever.

The government called its civilians terrorists 50 years ago. Keep up boomer. You’ve been a naughty terrorist before you were born.
