it is so dystopian…
How long until people will be carrying Raspberry Pis over the borders for their own hotspots? /s
It’s crazy how quickly mass censorship is becoming commonplace though. From shadowbanning on Reddit and Twitter, to court blocking in the UK, Spain and Italy.
The Internet gives some power back to the people, the powers that be would love to see it crash and burn.
MFW I climb a light pole outside of the McDonald’s to install my solar powered rpi jump box and find that there are already seven other solar powered rpi jump boxes up there.
MFW this is the fourth pole I’ve tried.
Why not use TOR?
On the plus side, maybe more tor users?
Will this change something for italian pirates?
I was in Italy in maybe 2013 or 2014 and every vpn ever was blocked. The only one that wasn’t blocked was the one running on my home server back home. Even mcdonalds wifi in Methsota US isn’t like that.
The Italian population is very old. This old generation of white man can’t die fast enough
This whole thing happened while a young woman is in power. This has to do with submission to economic power, not with gender and age.
I think from her part it was more about planting the seeds of a censorship tool than pleasing economic powers. Right-wing scum always attack freedom of speech first.
I don’t think this is needed to implement censorship. It’s Italy, I know better than thinking something is done out of malice, when it can be the result of incompetence. I completely believe this is some idiotic implementation of what football an TV economic powers wanted. Either way, this idea that everything bad is because “old white men” is bs. We don’t even need meloni, we can use the dear iron lady as an example…class and economic positions count way more than age and gender, ultimately.
