Friendly reminder that your DMs and "followers only" posts are all visible to your instance administrator, who (in addition to their hosting provider) can be compelled with a warrant to disclose the contents to law enforcement.
If you want to organize political protests or engage in activities that law enforcement would take an interest in, fediverse servers are not the right place to do that.
Banning cop/law enforcement accounts literally does nothing to help you, just FYI.
@freemo is this true? Can government threaten instance owners to disclose data on their server? Do instance owners have some kind of anonymity (like using VPN) to escape from government threats?
@raining_night @freemo my suggestion is moving to Switzerland and hosting all your infrastructure there.
I also hear Cuba is quite nice this time of year 😂
