In my experience such facilities aren’t any better in some “nice” northern European countries. The incentives might be slightly different, end results the same. For example in Finland involuntary commitment is somewhat frequently used as an

Oh please. Colo those servers and don’t publicly expose your relationship with the colo provider, spin up frontend proxies on other providers to hide your backend. This is basic stuff, the problem with Parler is that their team seems to hav

These questions are next to impossible to answer. The DUAL_EC_DRBG algorithm is widely agreed to be backdoored (even the author of this article seems to agree), but nobody has actually proven that an attack exists. Cryptography is a very co
