As the U.S. #SupremeCourt appears to be on the verge of gutting federal agencies enforcement powers, in a bid to dismantle the "administrative state," the FCC recently issued new rules to prevent digital discrimination.

In other words, Congress ordered the FCC to crack down on #DigitalRedlining.

I just keep coming back to the sense that anyone telling a marginalized user to migrate to or start a Mastodon instance for their group is engaging in Digital Redlining.
