It’s more than that.
The average person is legitimately afraid of knowledge.
This is where everyone from the old internet retreated to.
All we need now are instances that allow freedom of speech.
Probably not, since most people don’t know this kind of information about most countries.
I’m asking about data stored on servers.
Lemmy, for example, has its instances owned by people and those people can do whatever they want with the data that is stored on their servers. If there is ever a legal issue involving a user’s posts on Lemmy, how can courts or law enforcement determine that the owner hasn’t manipulated the data to protect or harm the user?
Sure, they can look at other servers’ since Lemmy is federated. But in the case of a non-federated service (which most are) or instance, this kind of verification wouldn’t be possible.
Thanks.
That seems like it would prevent tampering after a certain point, but it doesn’t verify that the data hasn’t been maliciously altered before the image is created.
The industry standards would be what major tech companies do in order to comply and make sure that when their data is involved in a legal battle, they can prove that it hasn’t been tampered with.
Any country is fair game since I’m interested about any general knowledge, but I’m mostly curious about Western nations such as the United States.
What lemmy instances allow freedom of speech?
