If we are ok with the @awscloud decision .. what would be the feeling if an ISP decided to block services and platforms because it didn't conform with their terms? Both Facebook and Twitter have plenty of bad content... and they've been used to "incite" violenceAnd how would you feel if that ISP was the only one in your area? In other words, you can only use that ISP. And what if it was your mobile provider did the same?

Now, let's assume that these same platforms were run by "conservatives" as we like to call everyone.. and during the BLM riots these platforms did the same thing. What would be the feelings then?I wish I was being factitious, but I am not. This is the mess that we are introducing, and it's easy to feel you're in the right when you have the numbers. But remember, the pendulum always swings.

@dcid @selea too bad they don't take advantage of the work NIST did in 800-63B (Digital Identity Guidelines) in which they actually tackle the problem of passwords, and adapt it to more realistic recommendations... (i.e., doing away with rotations for one)

Is it always really DNS? Does DNSSEC problems really make it a DNS problem? It's technically not DNS causing the issue.. or is it? Either way, another great example of the pains we still see with DNSSEC after 24+ years and why it's worth asking..is DNSSEC still a thing we should be doing? #networking #dns https://ruben.is.verweg.com/blog/2021/12/01/it-is-always-the-dns

So with the recent update to 4.x you might have noticed that the “toot” has been replaced with a “publish”..Here is an intersting article how the “toot” came to be and why it’s been replaced. Kinda funny.. but kind of miss it too.. #mastodon https://www.gizmodo.com.au/2022/11/mastodon-has-officially-retired-the-toot-its-version-of-the-tweet/

As cool as the #wildebeest release, by @cloudflare , is.. technically it is .. "WOW"...I can't help but think it goes contrary to everything that is the open web.. #notdecentralizedIt's the continued dependency.. the continue consolidation.. that's what should worry us all #techhttps://blog.cloudflare.com/welcome-to-wildebeest-the-fediverse-on-cloudflare/
