The #Open Path vs The #Closed Path – Why Simplicity Matters

The #mainstreaming success of #Bluesky means we have a crew who keep pushing the idea of creating a "native" #AP federated codebase/platform that captures its simplicity and ease of use. The problem they focus on is complexity vs. accessibility, the #open path is inherently more complex than the #closed path, and that’s a good thing in an open society. It allows for diversity, resilience, and decentralization. But in a closed society (which is what we’re working with), complexity […]

And the #media, dear god the media.

A few central actors who have insider deals with these industries and execs to spread false narratives in order to confuse the issue own most of the big media outlets.

It's become #psyop as a service. Only #independentmedia can be trusted nowadays. Even #AP is being corrupted by the current USb administration, which is nuts.

We can't go on like this and everybody knows it. But what do we do?

Yesterday, @anewsocial gave us a first look behind the scenes, as well as introducing an amazing board of directors who will help steer them.

The guys behind it, @quillmatiq and @snarfed.org are both great people. We're excited to see what they do and work with them to grow the open social web!

You can see the first A New Social update here: blog.anew.social/breaking-grou

We highly recommend you check it out ✨

A New Social · Breaking GroundHello, everyone! It's been a while since our last update, so we wanted to catch you up on some of the early work we've been doing behind the scenes to set up the organization and what's coming up soon. Building the Organization Turns out, setting up a nonprofit entity is.

I have an #AP account on a #fashernista anarchist server and also on a liberal #mainstreaming server, then boost the post between them - this has a mission to get round the "common sense" blocking on both sides - its #KISS bridge building in imperfect social tech flows.

I think some people don't understand this and just see ME< ME <ME these are the people who likely need to acturly read the site linked to hamishcampbell.com

U.S. District Judge Trevor N. McFadden’s decision was only for the moment, however. He told attorneys for the #Trump admin & the #AP that the issue required more exploration before ruling.

McFadden peppered both sides with questions during arguments over a lawsuit the AP filed Friday saying that its #FirstAmendment rights were being violated by the ban, which began gradually 2 weeks ago.

Continued thread

On Fri, the #AP filed suit in the US Dist Court for DC against 3 #Trump admin ofcls….The complaint specifically objected to the WH ordering the AP to use specific words in reporting & stated it had filed suit “to vindicate its rights to the editorial independence guaranteed by the United States Constitution & to prevent the executive branch from coercing journalists to report the news using only government-approved language.”

A tweet posted by #EdMartin, #Trump’s nominee and the current interim acting US Attorney for the District of Columbia [& a #Jan6 advocate], raised alarms among observers across the partisan political aisle Monday afternoon for his comments about the president’s ongoing dispute with the #AssociatedPress.

The Trump admin has barred #AP reporters from the Oval Office, Air Force One, & other official White House events because they use the correct geographical designation the #GulfOfMexico.

Anyone any recommendations on a WiFi AP that will run OpenWRT, as looking to upgrade my failed TP-Link Archer C7 AC1750

Ruff spec looking at for the upgrade, must is to run on 12V to run off solar battery setup

Power: 12V
Flash/RAM: 128MB or better
CPU: 750MHz or better
Ethernet Ports: 4 LAN, 1 WAN
Wireless: 2.4GHz/5GHz
Detachable Antennas

In stopping the #AP from attending #press events at the #WhiteHouse & Mar-a-Lago, or flying on Air Force One in the agency’s customary spot, the Trump team directly cited the AP’s decision not to fully follow the president’s renaming.

“We’re going to keep them out until such time as they agree that it’s the Gulf of America,” #Trump said Tues.

“The #press & all people in the #UnitedStates have the right to choose their own words & not be retaliated against by the government,” the #AP said in its lawsuit, which names #Trump #WhiteHouse Chief of Staff #SusanWiles, Dpty Chief of Staff #TaylorBudowich & Press Secy #KarolineLeavitt.

“This targeted attack on the AP’s editorial independence & ability to gather & report the news strikes at the very core of the #FirstAmendment,” the AP said. “This court should remedy it immediately.”

The #AssociatedPress sued 3 #Trump admin ofcls Fri over #access to presidential events, citing #FreedomOfSpeech in asking a federal judge to stop the 10-day blocking of its #journalists.

The lawsuit was filed Fri afternoon in US Dist Court in Washington, DC.

#AP says its case is about an #unconstitutional effort by the #WhiteHouse to control #speech — in this case refusing to change its style from the Gulf of Mexico to the “Gulf of America”
