      Made a sizable donation. I encourage you all to help them manage this situation, defend themselves and keep up their good work.

        Yep, drama or not, completely true or not (as is being claimed in this thread), they do incredible work, and if you benefit from it, let this serve simply as a reminder that they deserve some support if you don’t want to wade into all the details.

        Super happy to see they take Interac e-Transfers in Canada too.

      At this point I’m sure it’s not even about control anymore, it’s just that privacy sometimes gets in the way of “line go up”.

        French billionaires are actively promoting fascism, headed by Bolloré who owns a TV station similar to foxnews and has a neo Nazi body guard on his private island.

        French police is killing more people every year, with little to no consequence. French protests have changed from family walks to full riots as police attacks peaceful protests (a recent leak shows amongst other things a riot-cop telling his officer during what can only be described as a battle that protesters have children amongst them, officer replies that it’s what you choose when protesting).

        It’s not about tech, it’s about control of the masses so they don’t rebel.

          Maybe then Bolloré should be confiscated of all his media empire and wealth. Liberté, egalité, fraternité! Fuck fascist pigs, fuck oligarchs and billionnaires with their wage theft!
