Think about this given what happened this week with the fascist US government designating Autistici/Inventati – an anti-fascist Italian .org providing internet support to activists – as terrorists, sanctioning them, and knocking them off the Internet (solely by weaponizing Executive Order 13224 which was established shortly after 9/11 to target ruthless assassins)

This doesn’t just concern domains. If you’re an anti-fascist or anti-genocide org or group, the fascist US government can designate you a terrorist group and sanction you thereby cutting you off from banking, hosting, and almost all other infrastructure providers with zero due process in the EU.

The US government possibly is starting to identify decentralized media infrastructure as a threat to its survival. (or the big tech's survival and starting a crackdown - remember when Meta Caught Paying Nazis to Post on Facebook?)

Read Autistici/Inventati's history on the article The Server Called Paranoia: Defend Autistici/Inventati Before September 25 by We Will Free Us, an antifascist media collective.

There's also a book publicly available: +KAOS: Ten Years of Hacking and Media Activism (archive.org) by Autistici/Inventati

So basically, safety before this kind of takedown starts by coming up with your own TLD?

    Time for people and companies to start using their own national TLDs. .ca, .cn, .au, .io, .ml, etc. etc. etc. Stop giving money to Americans.

    I wanna say it was near the end of Trump’s first term I moved my domain to a .ca TLD, I have almost stopped using all US social media reading the occasional reddit post but not signing in. I have moved to the fediverse away from Facebook, and I had a twitter account but that is gone now!

    It pisses me off how many TLDs are US-specific. Like .gov and others being American only was bad enough but why the hell do two random political parties get their own TLD just because they're American?

    Those are all trash tld's? Never seen any of them being used on a reputable website.

    Crazy they also own so many non-english TLD's

    Why didn't you gloss .sarl? (Société à responsabilité limitée, French limited company)

    Is it because it's French? I understand.
