I believe we are under attack. The silent disappearance of these and
other (cautious, dedicated) posters on Usenet, the shutdown of
Backpage, etc. on the Web, the regular busts of AMPs around the
nation, all began with the passage of SESTA and the loss of Net
Neutality. If you pay attention, you can see all around us, victims
are being re-victimized in the name of "Security" and "protecting"
this or that moral attitude.
Watch yourselves, lay low, and maybe think about voting... perhaps
this conservative onslaught will pass. Maybe after all the walls are
built, those living behind them ("protected"?) will demand to tear
them down (again)...they always do eventually. Of course, it's likely
to get worse before it gets better, I'm guessing.
