    It is best to assume that any private US company is compromised in this way

    I would say that’s ridiculous for most people, but I guess it entirely depends on your threat model… if you’re legitimately worried about state-level boogeymen, you’ve probably got bigger problems and already know all of this.







  • Besides the fact that I highly doubt this will ever pass…

    I think if it did, it would greatly increase the adoption of decentralized platforms.

    If websites become responsible for user-generated content, they will just refuse to allow user-generated content in the first place, leading to an explosion in alternative services that are not beholden to the actions of one company that could be compelled to act a certain way.









  • I think there is. I would say the connection is not that electron didn’t exist before, but that now that ram prices are high, an increase in the number of electron apps becomes a problem because of the ram usage. Not that the usage wasn’t a problem before, but that more people are using even more electron apps now than ever, hence their “industry standard” comment.
