This is immensely disappointing, @mullvadnet.

Your co-CEO is funding far-right authoritarians. Authoritarianism is not compatible with free speech – anyone who claims to be fighting for free speech has to be aware of this. In fact, the reason we need free speech is to fend of authoritarianism!

You used "free speech" to defend anti-free-speech views. This is the "paradox of tolerance". Only, it is not a paradox. Allowing intolerance erodes a tolerant society:

Did you know that Microsoft applied for a permit for a warehouse in southern Sweden - and once they had built the "warehouse" they declared they were going to host a datacenter there with diesel backup generators?

I mean, we hear this happening all the time and so let's hate on data centers, right?

The difference is that this is Sweden, and we don't accept that shit. They were not allowed to run their diesel generators, had to purchase battery power instead and in the end they closed the data center down since they couldn't win this fight.

That's how you deal with it.

(They are now using other datacenters in other locations in Sweden, fully compliant with the laws, with renewable energy and not using water for cooling as far as I can see)

💬 "🇬🇧 Today, we mark the 30th anniversary of the Constitution of #Ukraine

Articles 1 and 2 of the Constitution of Ukraine proclaim that Ukraine is a sovereign and independent, democratic state, and that its territory within its internationally recognised borders is indivisible 💙💛

The UK stands with Ukraine in defending its sovereignty and territorial integrity against russia’s unprovoked aggression."

🇭🇺 PM Péter Magyar:

Viktor Orbán lied to the Hungarian people for years — that the EU was Hungary's enemy, that Hungary's job was to stop Brussels.

In reality, Orbán did not stop Brussels. He stopped Hungary's development — successfully, for long years.
