“Stop torturing animals.!Go vegan”.
Someone tore off the sticker, crushed it, and left it on the doorstep of our vegan restaurant.
Replace the word “veganism” with “kind to animals”.
This person is communicating:
“Stop forcing kindness to animals on me”
“I could never be kind to animals, I love cheese too much”
“ I am not ready to be kind to animals yet”*
Today, an unknown bot swarm started using my name, boosting my posts, and inserting itself into communities I helped create. I treated it like any other potential attack and started defending myself and our communities as best I could. This has taken up more of my day than most malicious bot attacks, because it had the air of legitimacy—despite taking the actions of a threat.
When the owner, @evan ¹, came in with the same justifications as the porn-scrapers and LLM-owners I regularly fight against—repeatedly doubling-down in the face of backlash²—I felt more and more sure of my response.
I now feel justified in calling for a #FediBlock of tags.pub (and probably his other projects), at least until a better opt-in consent model is built into the project.
¹ I'm including his name as he's a public figure associated with Activity Pub, and our whole conversation today is already a public record, but please don't dogpile; just defed or block as you see fit and call it a night (or day—I'm not your mom).

"Add this tag to your profile to opt out of our shitty service" is *not* a valid way to run your bot/app/etc. #NoBots #NoBot #NoTagsBot #HalfMyBioIsGoingToEndUpBeingOptOutsForYourShitServices #FuckBots
daniel berntsson, one of mullvad's two founders and owners, has donated millions to a local fascist/populist party. (swedish link to flamman, a socialist news site)
the örebro party are mainly known for using unusually aggressive rhetorics and racism.
in the article, berntsson specifically mentions supporting the örebro party's politics of forced repatriation of swedish citizens born abroad.
EDIT: …and should you decide that you're not renewing your subscription, then may i suggest telling them about it? i mean it's arguably a good thing if they're made aware that they're losing customers because of the owners financing this crap. and they can't get away with it since anonymous donations to political parties are prohibited in sweden.
you could even tell them here on fedi. it's mullvadnet(at)mastodon.online
«And God
please let the deer
on the highway
get some kind of heaven.
Something with tall soft grass
and sweet reunion.
Let the moths in porch lights
go someplace
with a thousand suns,
that taste like sugar
and get swallowed whole.
May the mice
in oil and glue
have forever dry, warm fur
and full bellies.
If I am killed
for simply living,
let death be kinder
than man.»
[Althea Davis - Kinder Than Man]
Oltre al link del WWF che già gira qui su Mastodon, mi hanno segnalato questo, che ripropongo. https://www.lav.it/stop-caccia

10 secondi nemmeno per firmare contro sta oscenità del DDL caccia 🙏🏼
Il Governo vuole stravolgere le regole sulla caccia: più mesi per sparare, aumento delle specie cacciabili, meno aree protette, fucili anche in spiaggia e nei boschi, migliaia di uccelli catturati rinchiusi a vita in gabbia, meno libertà di vivere in natura. Una legge pericolosa che mette a rischio animali già vulnerabili e trasforma la natura in un campo di tiro. Dobbiamo fermarlo! Firma per difendere la biodiversità, il diritto degli animali a vivere liberi e la nostra sicurezza.
