I imagine the cost of ground storage is much much cheaper than this would be.

My completely uneducated guess would be, to make it harder for the US to get equipment into the area.

This seems ridiculous.
So much so that I’d be both impressed and depressed at the same time, if it actually sees the light of day.

I’ve seen these kinds of articles a few times.
I’ve never seen anyone claiming VPN = anonymity.
Am I missing something?

Does it count as impersonating a law enforcement officer, if you’re a different kind of law enforcement officer? I would think so. But cops are legally allowed to lie. So maybe not?

That’s called the brain

There’s nothing to disprove ghosts because there’s no real definition of what a ghost is.

If someone gives me a real unambiguous agreed upon definition of what a ghost is, I’ll explain why we know they don’t exist.

ActivityPub isn’t the only way to be federated. Email is federated. Email isn’t ActivityPub. Matrix is no different.

ActivityPub is only one of a number of federated protocols.
One notably unsuited to instant messaging.

share the info natively outside the platform.

I’m not even sure that makes sense.
Federating is based on protocols not platforms. And what does it mean to share natively if not using the protocol?

Waiting for pizza

That’s what I mean.
The headline is a lie.

ActivityPub isn’t the only way to federate.
Matrix is federating the same way email does. Anyone can spin up their own server. And if they want anyone can spin up their own software. That’s what federation is. Different servers agreeing on how to communicate with each other.

I thought we already had Matrix

If America and Mexico [started] an all our “WAR” against the cartels [what would it] look like?

Maybe to be a member of a species requires at least a history of a single breeding pair?

First: your comment appears to be a reply to them not me. I think that’s where the confusion came from.

Second: You seem to be conflating listening to ideas with supporting them.

Third: Blocking places with bad ideas doesn’t silence the people there or eliminate their ideas. It contributes to their isolation and echo chamber. Often more then yours. You in fact end up helping make them worse. Which of course is worse for everyone.

The former often feels like the later.
Even more so when you’re not used to it.
