It’s a bit like walking through the park every day shouting at people, and not wanting anyone to know who you are. Eventually they’d figure it out.

That may be a question best answered by looking inward.

I’ve never seen these white men online.
I don’t think we run in the same circles.

This is the real answer.
I can’t go back to ad driven search.

I keep telling people that the Scream movies are not horror movies. They’re murder mysteries making fun of horror tropes. But haven’t seen any since the 3rd. They may be different now.

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

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

This is completely reasonable.
It makes too much sense to be a shit post.

Nobody sells cars with bare metal body work.
Would be a cool look though, with just clear coat to keep it nice.

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

But we already have tacos.
If you say “Tacos are coming soon”. And we already have tacos. I’d say “What do you mean? Tacos are already here. Do we need more tacos?”

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
