Pretend like you’re explaining it to a six year-old.
Edited for spelling because I’m a moron. |

that's fucking shitty
ARFCOM = the website you're on right now DD = 3d printer go brrrrrrrrrt keybase is an e2e encrypted chat/collab space (sort of like github) |

EDIT: I can't find the earlier thread discussing this, so I must be getting my wires crossed: I've heard that the Arfcom keybase was full of banned members and not for the faint of heart...so it may have been closer to the 8chan end of the spectrum. This is still evil though, and kicking off Defense Distributed has no similar excuse.
Ultimately I think this is a good thing to get out of the way now. It reminds us that we need secure, decentralized communications platforms which cannot be censored, and it gives us the actual motivation to build them. The worst case scenario would have been if they waited until the "real" Kristallnacht to do it. |

I’m trying to figure how we were targeted. I’m eating dinner and haven’t had time to think it through fully, but I see three possibilities:
1) The name “Arfcom” is on “the list” of verboten words. 2) Groups created by members of the det_dist and similar groups are being closed en masse 3) The “reloading” channel name, as metadata, caused the group to be flagged. There’s also the possibility that all communications were being monitored, but I don’t see how that would be technically possible. Even if we assume that it was, very little of what was said there had anything to do with firearms at all. I find that option to be the least likely. |

does that delete the gif library or not?
that's all i really want in life anymore. |

I’m not aware of any banned members there. I wouldn’t care if there were, but whatever. I *am* curious how you’ve “heard about” a group that I administer and was the sole member of until a handful of days ago. You must have excellent intelligence sources. |

This thread needs to be moved because it's talking about something political and that's verboten.
Maybe make a post about "wood plowing" child rapists or seeing communist tits it would get more traction and our communist overlords won't care. |

Could there maybe be more than one such community on keybase, and people got their wires crossed? |

alternate coms in case arfcom goes down for good. But, now that "site" is going down on the 29th.

Oh look, a giant in the tech world (Zoom) acquired a palatable alternative to big tech and now is adding oppressive new terms of use and policies that push right wingers out of their newly acquired space. Where have we seen this before?

How hard can it be to set up an IRC? Sure, won't be secure comms but at least you can still provide access to torrents that way.

Quoted: Keep the signal going best you can. View Quote Signal has been dead bro. Mainly from all the fudds and rinos who support owning guns. But.... You can't even put links to designs on this site. Or even say what the links name is. Say where you got a file for a 3d printed detent. You're permabanned and can't talk here anymore. I've seen a 3d print forum thread get deleted because someone asked what thickness to print a glock at. While this site is getting scrubbed from the internet,the mods are playing the fiddle still trying to appease the fascists that are taking it down. Q user posting a 3d printable glock is not why they want this site gone. They want this site gone because we speak against them on a site with a name they hate. And evening purging the speech they still hate us for the name. God help us all. |

Quoted: I still have no idea what's going on. View Quote @Gloftoe People Design & make things with their 3D Printer then share the design so others can download it, improve on it, etc. Sort of like a github but for 3D Printing. One place to look since everybody went there, sort of like YouTube and videos. Now it's all the smaller and independent sites that are being targeted. Keybase has the central repository of CAD/3D Files that allow you to print Fun Stuff out of plastic with a 3D Printer. From 22lr to gears and pretty intricate mechanisms or objects. Download the file, put the plastic "ink" into your 3D printer, hit "Go" and wait while it is made as you watch. The site that hosted all those files is no longer allowing ARFCOM and the one with some gun accessory files. Anything "firearm related" is being kicked off all the major platforms, in every aspect, from news hit shows to forum de-platforming and group banning on "Big Social Media". We're in a civil war and losing because people are still wondering if there's going to be one. Internet is now the ONLY communications hub that all other sources have been phased out (except HAM Radio - niche areas), break up any groups and ability to communicate with others who might resist. Divide and conquer is in play, against us. |

Quoted: It’s near the top of my list at the moment. I’d like to find a way to make it secure, though. View Quote https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/irc-server#1-overview Its probably been a decade or more since I've fired up an IRC client. But just for the purpose of disseminating information and hosting a directory of links to various torrents, IRC seems like a pretty low cost, easy to implement solution. |

It's becoming pretty clear that the solution will eventually have to be home rolled. Relying on third parties isn't working out so well.

There were all kinds of warnings about Zoom last spring and summer when the virus hit, and millions of people suddenly started working from home/online. Somehow all that got ignored, and Zoom became the defacto video call service. I would not trust anything to do with them, and have refused to use it at all despite a sudden influx of Zoom links for everything |

Saw this posted elsewhere.
No idea how secure it is. https://matrix.org/docs/guides/introduction I suspect something like this might work, if it works as advertised. Though I think we're at the point that the Feds may/will try to track down the physical location of servers that support a particular room to kick down their door and shoot their dog if they don't like the information being shared. IE gun stuff. Can location information like that be kept secret? I dunno. |
