+Warrant Canary covering the Month of June, 2021
+
+This is the second Warrant Canary for 1776 Solutions, LLC, Lolcow LLC, and
+Mad at the Internet, LLC.
+
+An explanation for what a Warrant Canary is can be found on the EFF:

+The Kiwi Farms has received three letters from Russia's ROSKOMNADZOR further
+insisting the deletion of memes depicting Hitler dressed as Santa.
+
+Flokinet asked us to move the <kiwifarms.is> domain to another registrar.
+<kiwifarms.nl> was moved to a Russian registrar.
+<kiwifarms.tw> was moved to a Chinese registrar, the same 8kun uses.
+<kiwifarms.hk> was moved to a Hong Kong registrar, the same 2ch uses.
+
+The Kiwi Farms was targeted by a denial of service attack utilizing bandwidth
+saturation, TCP packets designed to stress the router, and service-level
+attacks targeting specific pages.  We are currently mitigating it through a
+combination of protections.
+
+Sister services to the forum (Matrix, Fediverse, etc) are most effected as
+their networks are more interactive and harder to secure.
+
+Long-term solutions to this issue involve:
+1. Purchasing a bigger upstream link and new hardware.
+2. Setting up a second device in a second datacenter in Asia for redundancy.
+
+These are not inexpensive options but they will be needed.
+
+
+Personal aside:
+Please stop trying to censor the Internet.  You are begging for a future where
+all online communication in the United States is regulated by a handful of
+megacorporations with all meaningful decisions taking place behind closed doors
+and having no appeals process.
+
+"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary
+Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." - Benjamin Franklin
+
+We will lose everything if we continue down this path.  Our world is scary,
+and with machine learning we are fast approaching an environment where all
+online consumption is expediently monitored and judged by unthinking, unfeeling
+machines designed for the sole purpose of generating assholes like Jeff Bezos
+an unfathomable amount of money.
+
+If you believe that shutting down legal websites allowing people to say what
+they want is a way to safeguard against new censorship ("sites like this
+are why we can't have nice things"), you are falling prey to a contradictory
+logic where the only way to avoid censorship is to impose censorship on self.
+
+If you're not being censored because you don't say censored things, then is a
+problem? Yes! This is how people behaved in East Germany and under Stalin.
+People were even afraid to think bad thoughts, on the off chance that those
+thoughts might manifest into criminal speech.
+
+The Supreme Court will likely uphold the first amendment for decades to come,
+which is why the only way for the System to impose censorship right now is to
+consolidate power in private industries that work nice with the government
+(look at how all these same companies have ongoing government contracts).
+In doing so, they can restrict or promote certain information to influence
+people and make regulatory changes which enforce their power more likely to
+happen.
+
+This is a trap.  Don't step in it.
