For some people, it would be a big deal if Google suddenly locked their account. They might say it’s worth it.

- jrm4 2y agoIn what universe do you think the Google corporation would allow people to violate their trademark on another's server? Not technically, but legally. The more I roll over this AT thing in my head, the dumber it really sounds. The skin-in-the-game nature of tying names to servers, and also -- this is the important part -- the fact anyone can make their own server, is an infinitely better solution.
- criddell 2y agoI think you misunderstood. kstrauser and I were using gmail as an analogy. You’re right about Google owning gmail. That was my point - you don’t really own anything. If they lock you out, you’re screwed. I agree that the fact anyone can make their own server is great and I’m glad the AT protocol supports that.
