  • I’m sure we’re participating in the insane Q level narrative sculpting they do in their media. I hate Indian news so much. Also especially by the tech companies which munch popcorn as the insane Hindutva pogroms you see like on the border with Bangladesh unfold thru their servuces, and want to use the country’s cheap labor and poorly treated immigrant population (like from Bangladesh, as much as they act like they want to drive them out) to keep costs down on the packaging and testing side of semiconductors, and obv they have tried to enclose as much of their internet as possible worldwide like with the 2Africa cable (formerly known as Simba LOL). Silicon Valley is going to do everything possible to ensure imperial financiers have some form of enclosure of the communications infrastructure of the global south.



  • Mastodon also announced the five board members for the U.S. non-profit, of which two has led to some critical comments within the larger fediverse community: Twitter co-founder Biz Stone and legal advisor Amir Ghavi. Ghavi is involved in Blockchain and AI Technologies, technologies that the fediverse community is critical of, and Mastodon CEO Eugen Rochko himself is also has spoken out against. Both Ghavi and Stone are involved in the space of venture capital, which also has drawn criticism within the community, as they feel that it goes against the values of the fediverse.

    A bit uneasy? This is beyond parody LMAO. Twitter co-founder? This is so incestuous. Open source projects are too often just a cargo cult built around corporate practices. Nothing surprising, but really validates the move to defederate with people who don’t block Threads etc.
