Pretty much the title sums it up. There’s a lot to be concerned about, and one thing I find personally disconcerting is how US educational systems might be impacted.
Do we need to make backups of, like, everything educational and scientific? And where are all the places and forms that we can host these materials?
Edit: to everyone saying it shouldn’t be an issue because Trump/US doesn’t control information in the rest of the world, keep in mind that is little comfort to those of us here if access to that information becomes restricted as well. We should be seeking to hedge all bets.
The internet in the united states you’re using right now, is going to be unrecognizable in the next 12 months, all free services will charge, cost for access will increase, speed will be symied, vpn usage will be curtailed, and archive, library, and pirate sites will be blocked.
We just re-elected a fascist tyrant who wants to close as many avenues of education and free speech which can be used to educate, organize, and publish against him as he possibly can, as well as funnel as much cash to media and tech oligarchs to keep them onside, and now he’s got both the house and senate with which to do just that.
