Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

@ifixcoinops I'm trying to find #theowlhouse people
PLEASE!
No one seems to have moved from the bird app. I don't think they learnt how to fly yet....or they're all penguins in which case i'm in big trouble because I was only on there for the artists 😭
@scanlime Why do you have a graph of the objects around my house

For other instance admins
It's okay to say "we don't allow police on our instance"
Scholar has had that in our About for at least a year:
We also had a "no institutions, only individuals" policy for even longer
This has done us well
I just want to remind you that you don't have to provide volunteer tech support and hosting for agents of the government, for-profit companies, or other institutions
You can just, not
And it's bad for your community if you do
@berge@snabelen.no @ruby This really doesn't address the concerns, and it's not really raising any points I haven't heard a hundred times before, but honestly it's not a discussion I really feel like continuing right now.
It's an extremely exhausting one because I always end up having to deconstruct a ton of assumptions not just about how government oppression works, but also about how government infosec organizations work internally.
I've had to have it too often already, and I just don't really see any reason to have it again here.
infosec, cops
@berge@snabelen.no @ruby Yes, plus the operator's own history with feds
(And no, there is no such thing as "government infosec organizations for the public good", regardless of what they say on the tin they *always* end up supporting cops one way or another)
@berge@snabelen.no @ruby The problem isn't "cops exist". The problem is "cops are welcomed" (or, in the case of this particular instance, "cops are actively invited"). It makes the people running the instance untrustworthy.

Everything *else* aside, having a government account hosted on a community server seems an awful lot like having a government website hosted at something like
bobspersonalpage.com/users/~InternalRevenueService
@someonetellmetosleep@queer.party Strong agree
re: infosec meta, question
@ruby Unfortunately that one has just turned out to be fed-friendly :(
Results of today's #StreetComplete trip:
- The optician was closed due to an eye surgery
- The social housing corporation's office is up for rent
- There are now two branches of the same flower shop within the same shopping area. In addition to the two supermarkets of the same chain we already had.
I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried.
re: infosec meta, question
@ariadne@treehouse.systems Oh, absolutely. There's a reason I avoid the industry... :/
infosec meta, question
So, uh. Are there any infosec instances left that *aren't* buddy-buddy with feds/cops/fascists/etc.?
re: subtoot
@scanlime Also I am disappointed but not surprised by the *many* folks on that instance inventing an imaginary reason for the fediblock and then criticizing that, instead of, y'know, listening to the actual reasons people have been giving.
@ardaxi @whreq Even verder gezocht, is https://www.attema.com/nl_NL/producten/connectivity/k25p25-plattebuissysteem/k25p25-toebehoren/3168/a25-uitbreidingsdoos-wit-ral-9010?c=1797 + Attema K25 kokers niet wat?

The modern German train experience of "your train is delayed, so you wouldn't make your connection. However that train is also delayed, so you'll make it" 😅😅
