Julian Assange warned us. Digital archives give them the power to erase history with one click.
One day you see a page. The next day it is gone. "Page not found." A week later, the narrative shifts. "This never happened." No record remains. No evidence of the deletion. Just silence.
This is not a hypothetical. It is a description of how centralized digital infrastructure actually operates. When history exists only on servers controlled by corporations or governments, it exists at their pleasure. A court order. A content policy update. A political calculation. A change in leadership. And the digital record disappears as if it never existed.
Assange understood this decades ago. His warning was not about any specific archive or any specific government. It was about the architecture of digital memory itself. When you do not control the infrastructure, you do not control the history. You are a tenant in someone else's archive, and your lease can be terminated at any time.
The solution is not to abandon digital tools. It is to diversify them.
Keep physical books. Print what matters. Store PDFs on external hard drives. Use multiple storage locations across different devices. Distribute archives across different networks and different jurisdictions. Do not trust any single cloud provider with anything irreplaceable.
Digital memory is fragile by design. Fragile can be broken. Fragile can be rewritten. Fragile can be erased with a single keystroke.
Own your own copies. Archive offline. Do not trust the cloud.

A client asked for a server install for a specific CRM developed by one of Italy's biggest software houses. They’re dropping Windows Server 2022 support in a few months, even though the OS itself has a much longer lifecycle.
We looked into Linux support: Rocky Linux 9 and Ubuntu 24.04 are "certified", but only until April 2027. Since we'd rather not reinstall everything in less than a year, we asked for a path that guarantees official support beyond 2027.
The "support" team replied with a canned response, attaching a 2023 document where every single distribution is listed as EoL since 2025. 🤡
And then people ask me why these "software giants" are the primary cause of my receding hairline...

RE: https://poliversity.it/@devconf/116549350437622576
La DevConf sarà un evento davvero interessante, ricco di interventi stimolanti.
Il programma prevede argomenti a tutto tondo, con una particolare attenzione al Fediverse e alle tecnologie di comunicazione libera.
Personalmente presenterò #FediMeteo, raccontando come è nato, perché, come è fatto, a chi è rivolto, alla libertà dietro il progetto stesso. E ad una truffa.
Stay tuned!

Yesterday, one of the younger electricians was telling me about the beauty of the new alarm systems he installs. While acknowledging the quality of my current one, he said, "It uses a SIM card and calls you. The new ones are 4G or Wi-Fi and use the cloud, so notifications go straight to your smartphone, it's not calling anymore."
I asked him, "And what if the cloud stops working? Why should I have to depend on the company’s cloud to receive alerts from my alarm? My alarm is 10 years old and works perfectly. Can you say with certainty that the company’s cloud will still be effective 10 years from now?"
He looked puzzled for a moment, then admitted he had never thought about it.
The real problem is that people do not realize what this means until things actually happen.
