This is why we need a free and open internet without central controls.
Open and free internet doesn’t matter if people are too afraid to talk. I mean, China could turn off the firewall right now, there will not be any increase of dissent online (because dissent gets you harassed by cops, and potentially get arrested).
The solution to internet surveillance and censorship isn’t just techonologically, but also has to be legislatively. Doesn’t matter how advanced the technology is, if it could just be legislated into a crime.
This is exactly why TOR was created, we can’t legislate people safe world wide, but we can give them a voice and a means to communicate.
End to End Encryption is necessary.
People who are free to create systems without danger should do so to help those who are in danger.
Technically, we could say if the internet was extremely censored and blocked any access to Twitter or VPNs, he wouldn’t be sentenced to death for that reason (but probably killed for another bullshit reason)

Thank you for putting words into my mouth. That is not what I was trying to say. There will always be bad actors, we have to make people resilient to bad actors.
The internet, at is core, is designed to be decentralized and work even when huge portions are taken out. Distributed and partionable.
Also your posting on Lemmy part of the fediverse, which is also decentralized and without central control.
decentralized internet cannot work
You heard it here first, folks! Right here in the Fediverse! Let’s go ahead and turn these servers off now, I guess.
And unicorns too now that we’re dreaming
I can’t build a unicorn. But i can help build a free and open internet.
In other news, new KSA national trainer Mancini to be the best paid football coach at 30 million a year. I’m sure he’s having sleepless nights after hearing this news together with Ronaldo, Neymar & co.
Did Elon pay his legal bill?
I don’t have a solution for this catastrophic injustice all over the world, but we - as in we humans - have to chlose down these inhumane shadows like north Korea or other nations killing people for expressing their opinion. That has to stop. We have to go the way to overcome that concept of closed nations completely, we’re all on an insignificant pebble in the dark & mankind has to grow up at last, from the ego-driven toddler at least to a plagued teenager iykwim.

I sure do, but I’m not about to get put on a watchlist for suggesting it.
This is the country your government sends weapons to
A barbaric nation with devilish monarchy that other nations support just because of their oil money. Anybody whose government supports them should feel ashamed.
Horrible. And this is a country that wants to be seen as anything but a pariah.
Barbarians. The world must treat them like it and shame them and their children until this stops.
Truly astonishing.
The “government” of Saudi Arabia and the rest of the GCC countries’ end is coming. When they run out of oil or when oil loses demand, the same immigrants (institutionalized slaves) will revolt for equality and revolution will pursue
