Techrights Was Further Decentralised Three Years Ago

Attacks using drones that "do a kamikaze" aren't the only type of attacks

Internet shutdown in Iran is now the longest in world history

In 2020 we began working on IPFS stuff, using the same Raspberry Pi device whose value right now possibly exceeds the purchasing price (due to rising RAM costs). Then (within a few months) we added Gemini Protocol support, seeing that in 2021 the attacks on us intensified, trying to censor us by all means possible (contacting my employer, contacting my wife's employer, sending me baseless legal threats several times per year and contacting my ISP at home, not just several webhosts in a coordinated fashion - coordinated by several actors at the same time). After we had struck many nerved some deplorable GAFAM-sponsored trolls decided to just try to 'kill' us. It didn't work and it mostly backfired on them.

It should be noted that all of the above attacks always came from America. Always. That says a lot about American culture of hostile attitudes towards the media globally. Yes, globally. The current US President isn't an anomaly or aberration. Many people voted for this.
