“These data centers are taking over because they like to get in a county where they can run and do whatever they want without being restricted,” Garcia said.

What an energizing #CablesOfResistance workshop:

Purge Palantir

Jeff and Karl managed to have a fruitful conversation with a packed room. Lots of people contributed facts.

Having attended MP @sonjalemke's presentation this afternoon, I was able to contribute the fact that QTS (part of #Blackstone and a frequent contractor of ICE and Palantir) is planning a new datacenter in far west of Germany – in Lippetal near Hamm, Westphalia.

I also shared a detail from a public hearing in Baden-Wuerttemberg where the police presented a device called a “data diode” as an alleged proof that no data from Palantir servers in Germany can flow to Palantir headquarters in the US – which is a ridiculous suggestion. Palantir servers – even if located inside German police authorities – are always run by Palantir staff, and they will surely find a way to exfiltrate data when asked by their bosses or the US government (which can force US companies to hand out data even if it is stored on foreign servers because of the US CLOUD and FISA acts).

Talk abstract from the schedule:

An open discussion and exchange about organizing against Palantir and big tech in the US and abroad.
Jeff and Karl are organizers working with grassroots organizations, activist collectives, and labor unions in the US to slow authoritarian consolidation and curtail the power of Big Tech.
Jeff is part of the #teslatakedown core team https://www.teslatakedown.com/
Karl is a team member of PurgePalantir https://purgepalantir.com/

Dazu passt dieser Artikel zum geplanten Groß-Rechenzentrum in #Hamm :

@hart "Palantir raus aus Deutschland". So denken WIR.

Die Stadtpolitik in #Hamm tickt anders: "In Lippetal, etwa 1,5 Kilometer vom THTR in Hamm entfernt, soll nach dem Willen von Hammer und Lippetaler Kommunalpolitikern von dem US-Konzern Blackstone für mindestens vier Milliarden Euro ein riesiges Rechenzentrum auf 27 Hektar Fläche in der Lippeaue gebaut werden"

#QTS, #Palantir und #ICE sind mit im Boot.

In #Hamm soll nach dem Willen von Hammer und Lippetaler Kommunalpolitikern von dem US-Konzern #Blackstone für mindestens vier Milliarden Euro ein riesiges #Rechenzentrum auf 27 Hektar Fläche in der #Lippeaue gebaut werden...

Blackstone-CEO ist Berater und Sponsor von #Trump. #QTS, #Palantir und #ICE sind mit im Boot.

Der #MAGA- und #Palantir-IT-Dienstleister
Quality Technology Services #QTS will ein Megarechenzentrum im westfälischen #Hamm bauen. Vor Ort sind alle Parteien außer der Linken dafür, auch die Grünen.

So wird das nichts mit der digitalen Souveräntität. Und um Strom und Trinkwasser müsst ihr euch dann auch bald prügeln.

@fraunora Heute erfuhr ich, dass ein MAGA-Datacenter nach Ostwestfalen-Lippe kommen soll. Der Betreiber #QTS arbeitet auch für #Palantir:

Oh. I got quote toots now and it's an extra step for every regular boost.

I really liked how easy boosting was Before this change

@lrhodes

Context Boosts, wow. Excellent design idea. It really reflects the classical Mastodon approach of 1. Reply; 2. Boost the original post; 3. Boost your reply. I stick to this approach religiously, but elegant it ain't. Your Context Boost bundles these three steps into one. As you say, it preserves the continued involvement of the original poster, which twitter-style QTs don't. Excellent.

@wjmaggos

Well part of it is that a lot of #journalism may not have those resources after all.

With budgets being squeezed and internal debate over future directions of the organizations, there might not be resources–money and attention–available for them to do the work to embrace #fediverse.

Forking #Mastodon for #QTs
and such, adding it to institutional workflows isn’t a trivial thing as you make it out to be!

@taylorlorenz

PSA: QTs are available on some Mastodon servers. Also, they are available on all CalcKey servers.

To find a Mastodon server with them, go to instances.social and look for servers running 4.1.4+glitch.

To find a calckey server, go to https://calckey.online/explore or https://calckey.fediverse.observer/list.

You can create an account on Calckey, test it out, and if you like it, move your entire Mastodon account (followers, follows, posts) over very easily.

@oblomov

Yes. #QTs are damaging to our inner posture when talking to others. Talking about the other, not to the other. #Thou becomes #It. #Dialogue becomes competition. I become the judge, not the partner.

On arriving here last November, I instantly felt the liberating power of Mastodon's discussion customs, especially the prohibition of QTs. I endlessly thought and posted about them. The recent announcement to introduce them saddens me; I absolutely share your fears.

#MastodonCulture

What will be awesome with #QT #QTs will be reposting #Finnish postings and giving context to my global readers since some of the stuff is great or hilarious on #Mastodon. 😄

#Mastodon introducing #QT #QTs on future release tells me this ship may not be heading into the iceberg that #Usenet and #IRC hit in their arrogance of not listening to their users. #Twitter #Bluesky

Mastodon feature blathering, bc I just reposted a bookmark from OldServer talking about how if Black ppl need #QTs to feel comfortable migrating from #tuiter, we should add QTs to #Mastodon:

Currently, u can set account privacy in terms of who can see your content, AND can change that on individual posts.

Can't the same control be given to ppl QTing your content? Anyone - followers only - nobody?

Only downside: another post-level control for apps and interfaces.

Like it or not, birdsite is still better because of #QTs #QuoteToots

@blherrou I know some #mastodon folks think #QTs caused the cultural issues on #Twitter, but the longer I observe the more convinced I am that this isn't true. Dunk culture on Twitter wasn't caused by software imo, but by the founding (or early) community.

We remember asking for #QT on fedi, not in so few letters, but we did ask.

Someone explanted that fedi was different. People found #QTs to be abusive on the #dotcons. We thought about that and basically instantly realised that our past #behaviour may have been less civil.

We adjusted.

I do not believe in yeilding to them (and many bots) who have descended upon Fedi, and specifically it seems, #Mastodon servers, in the past couple months.

They should learn like we did.

#antiFeatures

I'm so old I remember before the QT existed h/t was a thing.
