Autistici/Inventati designated as a "terrorist organization" by US State/Treasury departments
Not sure if anyone here uses this email provider, but I remember seeing them listed on the FSF website (by the way, what's with their name?). They've just been designated as a "Specially Designated Global Terrorist" by the US government: https://www.state.gov/releases/office-of-the-spokesperson/2026/08/designation-of-autistici-inventati-as-a-specially-designated-global-terrorist
We called ourselves Inventati because we strive to find ways to translate issues that are part of struggles and their organizing, overcoming the limits and constraints of reality in the digital world. Ie: a plenum can be made permanent and continuous through the use of a mailing list.
We called ourselves Autistici, instead, for the passion we have for understanding the technical tools and for exposing the politics implicit in the digital world; even if software is created in a virtual world it doesn’t mean it doesn’t have a political impact on reality.
I've been using an email account on that domain as a backup for several years. It works very well; I've never had any issues.
I just checked, and it works. However, yesterday I noticed an outage on stallman.org, which is still ongoing. I assume it's unrelated.
Well of course, USA has gone very fascist, of course they consider entities who want privacy to be "terrorist groups"
The truth however is like the government of Israel, the usa government is also terrorist group right now.
Till the current antichrist is removed from office.
Think agent orange.
:P
But yeah, that is why they designated Autistici a terroist group.
Complete SMH.
