Bericht: Apple will mehr Geld aus dem App Store ziehen

Einigungen mit der EU sowie Ländern wie Japan sollen eigentlich Ruhe in die App-Store-Provisionsdebatte bringen. Offenbar sieht das der neue Apple-CEO anders.

It is fairly simple to moderate a simplex space or decentralised spaces in general its just you have to think about it differently

The internet at large isn't moderated the way we would like social spaces to be moderated but that doesn't mean that the internet at large is inherently unsafe to use

How did you arrive at mastodon over twitter or bluesky it wasn't because there was some overarching internet moderation that told you this is where you are allowed to be

To moderate a decentralised space you just moderate your corner of it. As soon as you create an apparatus to moderate the whole ecosystem then you have created a fascist tool that will disproportionately be leverageable by people with more compute and infrastructure ie the wealthy

This is exemplified by the fact that signal servers use AWS infra, and amazon is a trump loyalist company who can at an instants notice cut access to signal for everyone as soon as it becomes too inconvenient - internet blackouts are a thing during revolutions so signal blackout isnt beyond the pail and somewhat related but Apple removed the ICE sighting app when it became inconvenient to US government

If the practical limitation of this style of moderation is that you can only afford to moderate semi closed invite only groups then that is still valuable: this is how most activist signal groups work anyway - but even within decentralised systems like matrix or simplex you can still delegate moderation rights with chat permission hierarchies to make moderating larger groups feasible.
