Hey #forkiverse people, and everyone else who has joined us recently!

You might be just learning about the thing that makes fediverse special, that it's made up of many communities spread across many servers running different platforms.

Now, I won't bore anyone with how all that works, but here are two cool ways to visualize this.

- https://data.stefanbohacek.com/projects/fediverse lets you see which servers you are connected to (I made this one!)
- https://moderation-explorer.online helps you understand the shared responsibility of fediverse moderators

Hope you'll enjoy!

How Hackers Are Fighting Back Against ICE

‚ICE has been invading U.S. cities, targeting, surveilling, harassing, assaulting, detaining, and torturing people who are undocumented immigrants. They also have targeted people with work permits, asylum seekers, permanent residents (people holding “green cards”), naturalized citizens, and even citizens by birth. ICE has spent hundreds of millions of dollars on surveillance technology to spy on anyone—and potentially everyone—in the United States. It can be hard to imagine how to defend oneself against such an overwhelming force.

But a few enterprising hackers have started projects to do counter surveillance against ICE, and hopefully protect their communities through clever use of technology….‘

I may have already found the best thing I‘ll read this year. More people should see this. And by „more“ I mean „everybody“. Long, but very much worth it.
