Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Given the amount of internet fuckery that happened in the 2016 election, I’m not surprised that the Pentagon is monitoring everything going on in the Internet. I’m not sure what they can do about it in most cases, but I guess it helps to keep tabs.
We've known that the NSA stores everything they can get their hands on for more than a decade. It's one of those things we just pretend isn't still happening.
I really should stop worrying about data backup. Why pay for it?
Backing up data is just as important as restoring it. Good luck getting the NSAs copy.
FOIAing a backup of your lost website would be epic.
We also might be able to fill in some gaps in the internet archive that way someday.
I don't think we will have the internet archive long enough to find out
A mere jape, it was!
i back my data up by beaming it into space
Just a simple FOIA request, and 3 month lead time to get data back printed on stacks of paper
