Fascists.

Edit: Whenever the question is “Who could possibly be helped by this?” the answer is “Fascists.”

Ain’t nothing gonna happen.

Another test case for loyalty to Trump.

Trump indicated that he wanted it to be available to broadcast his inauguration on Monday.

There it is.

That’s because it’s just gambling.

By forcing Trump to address real issues …

Not possible, as evidenced by :gestures widely:.

Trading with the Enemy Act (TWEA)

In March 2008, the New York Times reported that a blocklist published by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), an agency established under the Trading with the Enemy Act 1917 and other federal legislation, included websites, so that US companies are prohibited from doing business with those websites and must freeze their assets. The blocklist had the effect that US-based domain name registrars must block those websites. According to the article, eNom, a private domain name registrar and Web hosting company operating in the US, disables domain names that appear on the blocklist.[38] It described eNom’s disabling of a European travel agent’s web sites advertising travel to Cuba, which appeared on the list.[39] According to the report, the US government claimed that eNom was “legally required” to block the websites under US law, even though the websites were not hosted in the US, were not targeted at US persons, and were legal under foreign law.

As far as null routing IPs, we’ll see.

I have personal experience with backbone carriers.

To be fair, it wouldn’t be every ISP that would reroute, just backbone ones. Their routing tables would filter down to regional and last mile networks.

Convincing other people to align with the foundations of a new system is using the soap box. Unless that new system is wholly undemocratic, the ballot box comes next. The jury box must follow unless the new system is an authoritarian one.

Building another system starts with the soap box. Making it official requires the ballot box. Defending it in place needs the jury box. Doing away with it if it becomes corrupted demands the ammo box.

We’re not in opposition to each other, but you’re definitely more optomistic than I am.

“There are four boxes to be used in the defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and cartridge (or ammo). Please use in that order.”

Three of those have already failed.

That’s one way, yes, but there’s also going to need to be obstacles put up in front of the brownshirts and jackboots.

political resistance

I am not referring to political resistance.

Public DNS servers hosted in the US will get notified to delist the domain or direct it to an alternate IP. ISPs will get notified to route IP traffic elsewhere.

Politics and politicians will not help you anymore. You will need to !resist@fedia.io, in whatever ways large or small you are able to. It’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Be prepared.

I haven’t reminded anyone to !resist@fedia.io recently. This seems like a good time.

The entire Trump cabinet is made up of “Who is the worst person to be in this position?”

“That thing we’re not supposed to do? Just let us do it.”

“Rectal” is not anything like “Thoughts”. You are disqualified.
