So even if the registry operates outside the U.S., it’s still tied to U.S. jurisdiction.<br/><br/>Where you start to see more independence is with ccTLDs (country-code domains, the two-letter ones). These are managed directly by governments or their appointed authorities, which means they’re not bound in the same way to U.S. legal frameworks.<br/><br/>That’s why, if digital sovereignty is important to you, ccTLDs are the better choice. 2025-08-30T14:04:54Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsr4eynn8vph7dsugcyxhs8dd7njddd7kmx3j28ht4c6cswdcptmdszyph3uk9wphddyfd3e7z3e84w8rzsa5vc38puvdwrsemmrpr6gxz3suc3m7q In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsyl2ll8lhptqep7s3dz26axzstfr0u50r6m3fsmv7sx5yteva0fyqyzyprx'>nevent1q…yprx</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>3 of 3<br/><br/>.promo<br/>.kaufen<br/>.market<br/>.auction<br/>.forsale<br/>.商店<br/>.cafe<br/>.catering<br/>.coffee<br/>.kitchen<br/>.pizza<br/>.recipes<br/>.restaurant<br/>.vin (wine)<br/>.wine<br/>.fish<br/>.pub<br/>.agency<br/>.digital<br/>.email<br/>.marketing<br/>.media<br/>.productions<br/>.social<br/>.studio<br/><br/>That&#39;s a long list.<br/><br/>All of those domain name extensions are controlled by a single corporation in the United States: Identity Digital Inc., based in Washington State and owned by Ethos Capital, which is located in Massachusetts.<br/><br/>Identity Digital accounts for roughly 30% of all word-based domain name extensions.

They started in Switzerland, and if they stayed in Switzerland, or expanded elsewhere except the USA, they would never have fallen under U.S. jurisdiction.<br/><br/>OVH, sadly, also now falls under U.S. jurisdiction. Originally, their American servers were not their own. OVH leased them as a customer, the same way you would lease a server, but resold those services. A bit of a gray area, but if U.S. laws or policies became a problem, they could pull out—the same way you&#39;d cancel a subscription. Today, however, OVH Cloud has datacenters, offices, and is registered in the USA, which places them under U.S. jurisdiction.<br/><br/>Once you&#39;re here, as far as our legal code is concerned, you&#39;re our b*tch.

The reason it upsets people is that they want to believe the lie.<br/><br/>Belief can be both powerful and dangerous. Anyone who believes that we cannot see everything you say or share on WhatsApp has been deceived.<br/><br/>Many of my fellow Americans wanted to believe that COVID was “just a cold.” Five years later, there are still people who cling to that belief — and they get upset if you say otherwise. Belief can be a foolish thing, just as it can be a dangerous one.<br/><br/>Spying on you is profitable. But it’s also a legal requirement: under U.S. law, any provider can be held liable for what happens on their network. So the logical business move is to monitor everything — while claiming they share “nothing.”<br/><br/>Signal is not owned by Facebook, but it’s still based in the United States. I wouldn’t trust them, either — for the same reason you cannot trust us. 2025-08-07T16:23:14Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsyexe03kdka2vnrvrpwnjd6v8hgec0mw9pzmc02gsuxapnhehqmggzyph3uk9wphddyfd3e7z3e84w8rzsa5vc38puvdwrsemmrpr6gxz3sm8345j What have we learned today?<br/><br/>That it was a smart idea to archive the U.S. Constitution before Donald Trump took office — and I’m glad I did.<br/><br/>I don’t care if anyone boosts this post, but I would feel better if more people downloaded my archive.<br/><br/>It’s a small file — just 193k if you download the ZIP.

You make it seem like somehow you can avoid everything, all the time, while still living with some convenience. If you know to do that, speak up all knowing self-appointed guru.<br/><br/>I know that Walmart is likely spying on my shopping habits, but it is the more affordable and convenient store in my area that offers home delivery. Instacart is the alternative. There is no alternative to Uber or Lyft. <br/><br/>But I can avoid GOOGLE who just like META is working with our government. I know, because I am an employee. I used to work part-time for Alphabet and still work full-time for Meta. I also know those two companies collect so much more data than Walmart, Uber, Instacart, or Lyft. And what they do collect usually relies upon Google Play Services.<br/><br/>So yes, I&#39;m going to minimize my reliance on the official Google, anything. Because when I worked for Google, much like now working for Meta, we have so much info on you, you&#39;d think we were a government agency, by comparison. 2025-07-22T21:49:04Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2eetnk0k0vfre27zx38czw8gyyuf7juqvgvhyq3w7v5z546edq3gzyph3uk9wphddyfd3e7z3e84w8rzsa5vc38puvdwrsemmrpr6gxz3s2znhr5 MAGA on Meta is disgusting.<br/><br/>Just trust me when I say, they are, absolutely, disgusting. 2025-07-22T18:36:14Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqswhv9fg0kpts2kgjk42dd4eqdqjcty0tp0rdqk5srzql995hs6wrczyph3uk9wphddyfd3e7z3e84w8rzsa5vc38puvdwrsemmrpr6gxz3s8p7v0h In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsznm02guccmpqutnsq60gv47laeynfd3dc4wu8te0r465twgcel8guyulk8'>nevent1q…ulk8</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I feel like you misinform, actually.<br/><br/>Using the Aurora Store and microG is not the same thing as using the official Google Play Store and Google Play Services. <br/><br/>There is a difference and I want that difference. <br/><br/>I get that you put in effort to make sure people can sandbox these things, but some of us want more than be told a sandbox is enough. <br/><br/>microG works so I can use my Instcart, Walmart, Amazon, and Uber.
