The TikTok ban, the Musk Twitter takeover, the Facebook moderation policy changes, the Republicans’ rapidly intensifying crackdowns on speech... let these be the proof you needed to move anything you care about online to a space you control.

Digital sovereignty is more important than ever.

@molly0xfff I moved all the important historical and scientific education videos to a USB, bought all my fav dvds in original dvd to play on my xbox 360 off grid, same for video games. Bought banned books as well. I encourage everyone to keep multiple copies of digital media to keep it safe. Diversity is your friend.

@Kate_Koda @molly0xfff Yes. Physical media is the way to go, where possible. Lacking that, digital downloads are superior to streaming. Setup a home NAS.

@zenmorph @molly0xfff sorry I'm not in on all the lingo, what's a NAS?
Show threadzenmorphJan 20, 2025
@Kate_Koda @molly0xfff Network Attached Storage. Basically a home-based storage system that can be accessed by all of your devices.

@zenmorph @molly0xfff Oh I will definitely bring this up to my husband to look into this. He's very into these types of tech. This will be really useful, thank you!
