That was an interesting read and saddening at the same time. I feel so sorry for the poor guy and all other email selfhoster.
Kind of curious here and sorry for my lack of understanding in IP stack, but isn't IPv6 going to somehow mitigate that issue?
Isn't there any other protocol that actually would circumvent that censorship? Like something like I2P? Or is it impossible to forward that kind of traffic over to it?
The internet is already a cesspool of censorship for "security" reason and it's getting worse over time. Do you have any clue where or how we can join a community/group that somehow fights back those kind of unfair and monopoly behavior of big tech companies ?
Thank you !
AFAIK all IPv6 does is ensuring everybody and their dog gets a publicly addressable IP address, plus encryption, but i'm far from an expert.
The self-hosting email frustration arises from years of cartelization under the "it's to prevent spam" banner (if it was to backdoor encrypted apps they'd go with "think of the children").
I think I2P is an overlay layer, i haven't delved into that... i assume it would require that the recipient was on I2P as well. So impractical, to say the least.
It's a David vs Goliath thing... the EFF does some interesting stuff, maybe they have something of interest to you. Then there's politicians if a) they actually represent you and b) can grasp the concepts.
