Yeah fair enough. It is wishful thinking. That being said I also hope the recession leads to some deflation over time.

Our country may suffer briefly while we adapt, but Canadians will just buy Canadian goods. I could actually see some prices decreasing for Canadians as the market adapts and that foreign demand decreases.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate you going above and beyond to provide me with some literature! :)

Thanks for clarifying!

My understanding is very basic, but from what I understand (please anyone feel free to correct me if you know more), it uses newsgroups, which is, historically speaking, an extremely old computer network communication system (conceived in '79) that was used for sharing news and files (it used to have forums and stuff on it too), and it works by transferring files in parts, then unpacking/assembling them at their end point.

Because they are in pieces during transfer, it’s very difficult for ISPs to know what you are downloading, therefore no VPN is necessary.

There is also no seeding because it’s a server-client model, not P2P.

As if rape cases ever get taken seriously. There’s just no incentive to file anymore.

I’ll have to talk to my brother because he’s the one that set it up, but i think we use dognzb and it seems to work quite well.

I’m working towards a better understanding of it so if that doesn’t answer your question please let me know and I’ll get you a proper answer :)

Or, hear me out for a sec: Usenet?

Really hoping this ends up having a streisand effect

The other founder is Moxie Marlinspike who is a security researcher

Considering the stakes Benjy has in the potential trade route running right through Gaza and evidence that suggests he was giving funding to hamas, I’m not so sure. It would explain his continued overescalation in attacks on Palestine.

That being said I could change my tune if I did see a legitimate reason to.

Not to mention, Israel had warning of the Oct 7 attacks and chose to let it happen because they wanted an excuse to commit genocide.

I mean, if there are altruistic hackers attempting some kind of cyber-coup, I’d expect we wouldn’t hear much about it until it happens.

I know why they’re doing this but I’m really hoping it bites them in the ass.

deleted by creator

I’m trying to convince mine to get on Signal

That’s understandable! I’ll consider this when I go to delete my account. Thank you for that info!

I’ve found that for those moving from reddit, sh.itjust.works seems to be pretty accessible

I mean if the account is deleted it’s no longer tied (to the puboic at least), and I’m not about to fool myself into thinking my internet use is actually secure.

Since all this shit started happening I’ve deleted all the social media apps on my phone and I’ve started using lemmy more. Gonna switch my YouTube shit over to peertube when I can.

Intending to actually delete my accounts in the coming weeks too. Bye bye, 13 year old reddit account. Nobody gonna miss ya.

Tbf I have been using Nebula a lot since I signed up pretty cheaply and I enjoy it. It’s owned by the creators. Found it through Jacob Geller.
