I recently came across a video by Loyal Moses titled "They're Banning Your Home Server".

This got me thinking about what it means for anyone who likes running their own gear.

The industry lobby's framing around private servers feels like a major mask-off moment for big tech, treating user-controlled hardware as a threat.

I have written a short piece in reaction to the video and would love to hear your thoughts.

Love how they're trotting out the piracy argument while AI companies have done the most widespread pirating of information and data to date yet operate openly and unscathed by accusations by this group.

When individuals do it, it's PIRACY!!!

When corporations do it, it's merely copyright violations.
