The USA is building it's own Sovereign National Network similar to what the CCP Built with it's Internet Firewall The CCP owns equity in Corps, and that exactly what the Trump Administration wants to do Free and Open Software is the Enemy of State Owned and Controlled Capitalism 😬 View quoted note →

Github crackdown will likely come at some point. Then, we'll have a problem. It's about friction on freedom. Lock down Android Open Source, lockdown Playstore, lockdown Git, lockdown internet access. Keeping tightening the net. Information will flow, but it'll take creative, driven, and freedom-focused individuals to stay one step ahead of the Blob. Are there any decentralized Github alternatives that are viable for production app development? #asknostr
