Back when I was a libertarian (Anarcho Capitalist, but no longer. Loudly a democratic socialist) this concept was called “monolopoly of force”.

That’s not actually the whole problem. If you watch the video, he brings up how your insurance company or the police can demand your footage (like all of it) and if you don’t comply you could have your claim denied, or face charges.

I mean… I would vote for her (to be POTUS) too, since I’m very much a democratic socialist. Unfortunately her chances of actually being the Democrat nominee are basically zero. And even if she did get that far, she would lose in the same way Kamala and Hillary did. Fence sitters and centrists seem incapable of voting for a woman. 🤷‍♂️

I would be elated to be proven wrong! Please, Universe! Prove me wrong on this!

The thing that concerns me the most about federated content, is that a malicious actor could post something horrible/illegal (CSAM as the obvious example) and that gets replicated across the instances. Now those instances are “hosting” the content and could be held liable for it. A major corporation can pay lawyers to say the content was user posted and they are not responsible (happens all the time) but your average Lemmy admin does not have the same resources to defend themselves.

This is me and I’m mad about it.
