Ah, the existential despair of not being able to read an article about mythical beasts 🙃! Apparently, MIT Press has decided that some monsters are too sacred 🤖 for the plebeian eyes of the internet. "Access Denied" – a modern epic of digital gatekeeping! 🚫🦄

Fair shout from @steg I forgot to say what I replace all this with:

I forgot to mention as well that I replaced Edge browser (at work) with #vivaldi browser. Never looked back 🙃

- Amazon: this one is complicated, but I simply made a step back and realized that I am not supporting local businesses. I will now try to purchase local first, and if that is not possible, I will be looking for the stuff I want on the net via #ecosia (search engine, which I forgot to mention that I replaced google with), so that I purchase directly from small business (if possible)
- this one is simple, I revered curse and started purchasing blue rays again (movies), mp3 for music (no subscription)
- digital cloud and AWS where problematic, you get addicted to the ease of clouds: replacement’s: I de-centralized 1. #infomaniak_com (domain registrations) 2. #MythicalBeasts (cloud servers) from the UK 3. #BunnyVPN (this one is still in progress, but this will fully replace CloudFlare CDN)
- social media has been completely replaces with #mastodon
- MS Office on my private machines has been replaced with two packages: 1. #protonmail (email, calendar, and cloud drive) 2. #libreoffice for documents

This was not easy, but baby steps and we can get there!

Hope this helps whom ever wants to join the move #boycottusa
