      Lemmy is not a United States adversary with a history of spying on foreign intelligence. If it was, I sure as fuck wouldn’t be on it!

        What if the government decided Lemmy was a dangerous (communist ?) platform that needs to be shutdown? This is a matter of censorship, however the outright open market for our data from all platforms is the elephant in the room here.

          Well, I would expect there to be some shred of evidence that it is dangerous to the security of the United States. We have LOADS of evidence of that for TikTok.

            And if no one cares about your expectations because now it’s been done before so if it’s being done again it must be for good reason?

      Whoever is in charge and feels like testing the limits with no repercussions.

      It’s painful to watch progressives learn that this shit will be used against them and worse time after time again.
