Let’s Encrypt

God damn they literally just want to watch everything burn.

[buddascrayon@lemmy.world]

We're going to have to try or potentially lose the project

Elections have consequences. I am no longer on speaking terms w/ trump voters.

I did not knew that Tor was getting funded by the american state. Thats giving me some spooky vibes.
