#HELP

I just received a concerning email from the OTF (@opentechfund.bsky.social) stating that a major source of their funding is in jeopardy.

If you care about open-source, anti-censorship, or the open internet, please consider supporting one of the projects they fund.

@fennix TBH, I think those bs claims should be illegal.

The only valid claims I've seen is that it enables people to circumvent #geoblocking and potentially #InternetCensorship as well as #TrafficDiscrimination due to lack of #NetNeutrality, but those are always to be taken with a truckload of salt!

Most certsinly, there are no "#loglessVPN|s" and no #VPN provider will risk jailtime for any.client

Groups ask US court to reconsider ruling blocking #netneutrality rules
The decision by a three-judge panel blocked #FCC under then President Biden that had sought to reinstate the open internet rules implemented in 2015 but later repealed by the agency under Pres Trump. The groups -- Free Press, Public Knowledge, Open Technology Institute and the Benton Institute for Broadband & Society -- argue appeals court decision conflicts with an earlier decision by another court.
