@hannu_ikonen anyone who doesn't think this is canon doesn't know James Cameron

@axios remember when, at the behest of the attorney general, american firearms were trafficked and smuggled over the border? and they were bought by strong-arming licensed dealers to make sales they knew were straw purchases? and then a lot of those guns just disappeared? and the ones that didn't were found at murders on both sides of the border and likely killed thousands?

They even all had CHUD names like:

Operation Wide Receiver
Operation Fast and Furious
Project Gunrunner

Mastodon isn't perfect.

But the fact a social network exists that is completely free to use

has no venture capital investors

has no shareholders to answer to

has no growth targets

with a web interface with zero tracking cookies

and mobile apps with zero trackers at all

with ten thousand server administrators who donate their time for user safety

is - in my opinion - mindbogglingly cool, given the state of the world we live in. Not everything has to be shit. People make things better.

@Basmitharts @ai6yr let's slap some orange paint on this baby and go pedestrianize some streets
I find it an amazing failure in understanding OPSEC that while all "those" companies took down the pages that enumerate their execs, that they don't recall that the public SEC filings are more detaile enriched and things like archive.org exist. They're still solving the wrong problem. Typical.
