_cryptagion [he/him]

likes anarchism, copyleft, piracy, drinking tea, photography, genAI, and watching nazis/zionists get punched. the only good authoritarian is a dead authoritarian. all cops are fascists. liberals are nazi collaborators. the united states is a terrorist state. israel does not have any right to exist. palestine must be free.

any original art or software I post here is yours, I don’t respect copyright for anyone else, and don’t claim any for myself.

  • Does anyone know if they collaborate with law enforcement

    yes, they do. they aren’t there to provide bulletpoof hosting, they are there to make your site resistant to DDoS attacks. as an added bonus, if you are selfhosting they also provide you with a bit of anonymity, in the sense that someone can’t just figure out your general location from your ISP.

    that doesn’t mean people can’t figure out who you are from the content you host. and if you are hosting content that is illegal, even if it’s illegal in another country, then you are likely to be exposed when their courts subpoena cloudflare. cloudflare isn’t going to fight too hard to protect your identity against a government, and honestly I don’t blame them for that because they never said that was their mission or purpose. they are DDoS protection, with a few other features that might be useful to you.

















  • Peter Thiel has invested in Brave. He also owns Palantir, the biggest corporate espionage agency on the planet, which contracts with the Department of Defense to build the largest government surveillance network in history expressly for the purpose of tracking every American, and has used that network to hunt down immigrants for ICE.

    Taking that all into account, I find it beyond belief that Brave isn’t a part of that network, and I’m not interested in using it on the off chance that it isn’t.
