You are probably looking for the infosec.exchange Mastodon instance

This host is mostly for my random stuff, and in little part acts like a well-intentioned placeholder for the typosquatted domain.

Discoverability and Archiving

Currently I'm using this host for saving the items from my own feeds to the Wayback Machine and provide in-links for search engines. I hate that I have to do this, but the non-sense ideology of Mastodon pretty much ruined the search feature for Fediverse as a whole, and this wasn't changed by the fact that they owned their mistake and implemented search eventually.

Yes, I (or anyone else) could do similar things with other peoples published feeds, regardless of the tantrum. No, you can't defederate this, because the process doesn't rely on an instance.

@rickoooooo @GossiTheDog @sadarex Thanks, this is a great resource: I think the main point here is that it was the Secretary of Defense, and two USIP board members who "fired" Moose (see the linked letter on X). Whether they had the authority to do that is disputed, but nobody even claims DOGE has any authority in this case, they just showed up like flies around a carcass.

Amazingly, DOGE seems to be a meme: their power is that people assume they have power (note that the top article doesn't even mention DOGE).

@FreeinTX @GossiTheDog @sadarex My question is if DOGE in particular in charge of any budget that is supposed to finance CISA?

@sadarex @GossiTheDog They can act like if they had authority it shouldn't matter. If I get an email from a stranger telling me I'm fired/I should fire people I ignore it. If thousands of people are laid off because a boogeyman the problem goes deeper than some small agency.

@GossiTheDog @sadarex I get that, thanks. What is unclear to me is what *authority* DOGE specifically has in the process aside of writing e-mails.

@FreeinTX @GossiTheDog @sadarex So congress started to allocate DHS money to an agency that exists since Jan to go crazy with it?

@twomikecharlie If that helps I think it supports multiple OS's but it's been a while since I used it.
