Let’s say Dear Leader decides to have the houses of anyone who speaks ill of him (or capitalism) burned down in the night, or their dogs killed, or nefarious files uploaded to their network etc. How easy would that be?
US, of course. I’m actually concerned about this.
I just use multiple VPN tunnels with the first two hops still in the US (so it doesn’t look like I’m going offshore) with random delays along the way (to avoid timing attacks) to a Lemmy instance in a privacy-friendly country.
They could probably still figure out who I am if they tried hard enough though.
