«In 1993, John Gilmore famously said that "The Internet interprets censorship as damage and routes around it." That was technically true when he said it but only because the routing structure of the Internet was so distributed. As centralization increases, the Internet loses that robustness, and censorship by governments and companies becomes easier.»

@kensanata I'm unable to see a reference to Gilmore these days without noting that last year he put someone up to sexually harass and assault Isis Lovecruft in retaliation for speaking out against his buddy Jake Applebaum.
@KevinCarson1 I had heard of Applebaum but not about Gilmore. A little duckducking led me to this Twitter thread: https://mobile.twitter.com/isislovecruft/status/920150647445401601 Ouch! (Indirectly about Gilmore.)
