Damn, I learned a new word today and I'm not even out of bed yet. That's a good one!
I concur, that's one for the back pocket!

Fuck the FBI.
- Sincerely, an anarchist
That last sentence is a bit annoying. Why wouldn't I trust anarchists with data? Did they just pull up a definition of kolektiva without actually understanding what anarchism is? The last sentence really implies they're using the incorrect but common definition of anarchism meaning "no rules" instead of the actual definition "no unjust hierarchies"
Naïve question: why would user IP addresses be stored?
Most websites track IP addresses, keep them in a database, and use them for various things. You can find a lot of information on this online, however in the case of non-profit social media like Mastodon, it can be useful for tracking bad actors and blocking them from access. Most of the time they are used for commercial purposes.
Goes to show the system is insidious and will stop anything it deems a threat. It would have to be completely destroyed to be stopped and its horrifying.
Yankeecops must be exterminated
