Anti-censorship

Censorship is bad, and is often difficult to seek accountability for (because such attempts are themselves censored).

This community exists as a safe place to report on instances and patterns of censorship among pro-GME, pro-DRS, and financial transparency accounts/content.

RULE: Due to the unfortunate risk of escalating tensions, please limit content in this community to factual record. Please do not include commentary on presumed motivations, intentions, shillery, name-calling, etc. If such commentary is included in screenshots, it must be redacted out.

Although I take the article's claims around intentionally propping up the DDoS landscape with a heavy grain of salt, the fact remains that anti-DDoS services can be critical for sites on the modern-day internet, and that our reliance on them is a weakness which certainly has been exploited before and will be exploited again to silence disfavored speech.

Note: we do use CloudFlare for our lemmy as well!
