Still using #Telegram and not the much securer #Threema?

Maybe this might help you 2 reconsider:

#Telegram owner and former #Russian #Tech Oligarch,
#PavelDurov "... was arrested at the Le Bourget airport outside of Paris in August 2024 and faces numerous charges related to his social network, including allowing terrorism, drug trafficking, fraud, money laundering, and child abuse content on Telegram. The founder of the messaging app 👉faces up to 20 years in prison👈."

Le Monde · Telegram founder Durov allowed to temporarily leave France.By Le Monde

Confesso que me perdi nas atualizações do Telegram, do que está acontecendo na plataforma desde que ela se voltou à financeirização de NFTs e outras bobagens digitais. Dito isso, ainda acompanho o canal do Pavel Durov e, sem malícia, tem dias em que por alguns segundos me pergunto por que estou seguindo o canal de um golpista até me dar conta de que é o dele. A linguagem, as promessas, a urgência e os artifícios de venda são indistinguíveis dos de um golpe. Talvez seja um grande golpe mesmo.

WIRED · Inside the Bust That Took Down Pavel Durov—and Upended TelegramBy Darren Loucaides

The US State Department has just designated Terrorgram and three of its leaders as "Global Terrorists". It seems unlikely to change much, but it may complicate the lives of those leaders a little bit.

====
Today, the Department of State is designating The Terrorgram Collective (Terrorgram) and three of its leaders as Specially Designated Global Terrorists pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 13224, as amended.

- Terrorgram is a transnational terrorist group that primarily operates on the social media and digital messaging platform Telegram. The group promotes violent white supremacism, solicits attacks on perceived adversaries, and provides guidance and instructional materials on tactics, methods, and targets for attacks, including on critical infrastructure and government officials. The group also glorifies those who have conducted such attacks.

- Attacks or attempted attacks by Terrorgram users motivated and facilitated by the group include an October 2022 shooting outside an LGBTQI+ bar in Slovakia; a July 2024 planned attack on energy facilities in New Jersey; and an August 2024 knife attack at a mosque in Türkiye. In September 2024, DOJ charged two U.S. Terrorgram leaders with a 15-count indictment for soliciting hate crimes, soliciting the murder of federal officials, and conspiring to provide material support to terrorists.

Das ist dann wohl Gretchens Lackmustest: Wird Bluesky RT von der Plattform werfen? Oder vielleicht wirksam dazu zwingen wahrheitsgemäß zu berichten?

Da Bluesky ja ein "dezentrales System mit ATprotokoll-Föderalisierung" ist, kann RT ja auch eine eigene ATprotokoll-Instanz einrichten. Die Fans von RT können dann Accounts dort einrichten und Bluesky kann die Instanz deföderalisieren.

Ich meine das nicht sarkastisch, sondern genauso wie ich es schreibe. Ist die unbenannte ATprotokoll social media Föderation deren elefantös-größter Mitspieler Bluesky ist (vergleichbar der elefantösen Größe von Mastodon im Fediverse), wirklich dezentral?

#HotTake #UnpopularOpinion sobald Bluesky das (Geburts)Versprechen dezentral und föderalisiert zu sein in der Realität einlöst, werden all die Twitter-Flüchtlinge und X-Flüchtlinge Bluesky so schnell verlassen, wie sie twitter und X verlassen haben und zum nächsten zentralen Milliardär überlaufen. Vielleicht baut #PavelDurov ja was neues?
