Sounds like I need to re-up on my donation to help save open information. Hopefully they can move operations to an actual friendly country.
It's no different to the Internet archive. They need to update their strategy for the threat of fascism and make it essentially impossible to destroy as long as people have PC's connected to the internet.
They need to decentralize operations with a distributed P2P protocol, redistribute their own servers across multiple jurisdictions, and allow individuals to donate resources for additional support/redundancy (as part of the P2P protocol).
And in the short term at least move to Europe.
Yeah, they could move their servers to Hungary.
Or Germany, or Italy, or Netherlands, or …, no threat of fascism in Europe /s
Lol, good one.
P2P Wikipedia would be amazing
Now this is an interesting idea! We have more computing power and bandwith at our homes than ever before, and use only a fraction of it.
I would happily support Wikipedia, openmaps and other projects by seeding their data.
In could even be more fun and motivating to do, since you could see how you are making a difference in real time, as opposed to donations.
I’m not sure, they killed Napster
You can also download all of Wikipedia in a package about 120GB in size. I have a snapshot from Jan 1, 2024 before the fascists took over.
Kiwix is the name of the offline browser designed for it.
