dnsdist is AMAZINGLY easy to set up as a secure local resolver that forwards all queries to DoH (and checks SSL) and checks liveliness every second

I need to do a write-up one day

Please do. I'd be curious what a secure-by-default self hosted resolver would look like.

I stand by the fact that a skilled editor cutting like hell across movies 2 and 3 to a singular sequel could save that story

I think you misread my sentence out of the context of the overall argument? I edited it to add "a decade ago" to be clearer.

If I'm correctly interpreting what you said - yes, I agree that presently some people end up running afoul of traffic enforcement, which causes them to run afoul of immigration, which causes them to end up in the concentration camp.

But the larger argument is contrasting the longer-existing authoritarian/autocratic dynamics of code/traffic enforcers versus the more recent development of autocratic immigration enforcers.

Thanks, I read it as saying that people weren't being deported to concentration camps over minor crimes or traffic offenses. I'm certainly not disagreeing with you about our descent into fascism.

> Right now you're making the same complaints about immigration process that hardcore libertarians made decades ago about traffic court and code enforcement and were brushed off for various reasons. They're keeping their mouths shut so as to not interfere with the learning process.

Can you point me to some examples of people a decade ago running afoul of traffic or code enforcement, and being sent to an extrajudicial concentration camp for it?

But seriously, stop trying to be edgy with needlessly contrarian points. Stop gloating because us libertarians were talking about the trend of unaccountable government processes before it was popular. The dam breaking is not something to be celebrated, you're just adding fuel to the fire.

It's time to circle the wagons and defend our country together. True libertarians are not "keeping our mouths shut", but rather speaking out against the rapidly increasing government power. One cause, which we have to be mature and acknowledge, is the destruction of bureaucracy (which we've always disliked, but at least it moderated) in favor of unrestrained autocracy.

Out of the hundreds initially deported to El Salvador, "only 32 of the deportees had been convicted of U.S. crimes and that most were nonviolent offenses, such as retail theft or traffic violations." [1]

Editorializing what, exactly? The rule of law?

"what they were doing" is attempting to illegally abduct someone. The comptroller's "impeding" was a demand to see the one thing that would make their request a legal arrest.

Instead, they arrested the comptroller without even a pretense of the law.

I'm scratching my head at the "Personal Support-Raising" section. It sounds like you're asking your workers to fund their own salary. How does that work?

The combined requirements of govt purchasing must carry the mark and major US surveillance tech manufacturers like Amazon are leading the rollout, makes this seem less like a cybersecurity concern and more of a protectionist carve out.

May I ask where / how you came about your copy? I've seen it mentioned several times but have found it difficult to locate. (For example, the used copy on Amazon is selling for $2000!)

Anna's Archive looks like it has ebook copies in several languages.
