Police in Amsterdam seized a server from a data center in the city’s eastern district on Tuesday, following a request from U.S. authorities. The police confirmed the seizure after it was reported by the NRC.
The seized server belongs to Italian internet provider Autistici/Inventati (A/I). Dutch police are creating a digital image of its data to hand over to U.S. authorities, as required under the American request for legal assistance.
Police have not disclosed which specific data will be transferred to U.S. authorities. The server will be returned to the data center once the process is complete.
cool cool cool lesson learnt. don’t set your vpn or host a server in the netherlands
where the hell can you put stuff anymore
Tor hidden services on a computer you physically control perhaps. I’m working on something along those lines, a self-contained easy-to-install forum system with zero javascript and a layout that works in the standard Tor browser layout. It’s got some other fun security tricks that I don’t see much in other forum software. It’s not intended as a replacement for large-scale interconnected forums like lemmy, it’s more like a replacement for a private discord server.
I’m expecting to have it ready in a month or so. I’ll make a post about it when I’m satisfied that it’s fit for purpose and reasonably safe. I built something similar years ago but the code was pretty amateurish and I’d feel safer building it from scratch with the experience I’ve gained since then.
You should call it Phppb
That’s truly disgusting.
I would never use PHP.
Don’t the Dutch have some sort of house where you can hide things from fascists?
You can run an eepsite on a laptop on public WiFi
Alibaba Cloud (maybe?). I have no idea really. I’ve not looked into it.
Home-server or e2ee could storage providers (I use the latter). It is reasonably cheap, I think I pay like 17£/year for 200 GB.
