DHS has issued hundreds of subpoenas to major online platforms to obtain the names, email addresses, and phone numbers of accountholders who criticize ICE.
My idea would be a completely peer to peer system with the possibility of allowing your data to be cached to servers (so your phone isn’t serving a viral video to 10,000,000 viewers, for example) that you choose/own/rent.
Even instances are vulnerable, probably moreso in some areas. For example, if someone bribed the owner of this instance to allow for them to insert malware payloads into the site’s javascript it would be much harder to detect than if Facebook did the same (less eyes on the problem).
It does save us from The Algorithm and the resulting propaganda, so it’s a positive step imo… but you’re right that it needs improvement.
