Cosplaying to be anti “American Tech”, then kissing the empire hand for blessing.
This is called “neoliberal euro syndrome”.
EU is cucked 😂😂😂
I thought they were talking about a restaurant server at first… 🤦🏻♂️
Exfuckingscuse me motherfucker!?
Antifa is considered a terrorist organisation in fascist America. What the fuck is a European country bending over to them for!? This is a violation of our sovereign rights! Has the Netherlands forgotten why we’re trying to get as many of our services to be euro-centric, or open source?
Jeezis christ!
The Netherlands is a US vassal state not a country.
Stop. Capitulating. To. Trump.
It’s hard enough fixing this shit without the rest of the world empowering the far right. (And stop yelling at us to fix our mess when your governments keep throwing shit on the pile. This is your fault too.)
Seriously, after reading about Greenland’s recent agreement to increase in American troops. My mind instantly thought of Neville Chamberlain
I sort of get why governments and their leaders keep playing nice with trump - they want to keep trade flowing smoothly.
But isn’t it a worse long run strategy to do this no matter what? Seems to me that they are exposing weakness which could hurt them in future negotiations. Not that any future, sane-minded world leader would ever implement tariffs again.
What crime was committed?
Enjoying a succulent Chinese meal.
But, more seriously…
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.
For years, A/I offered free website hosting and email services to thousands of organizations. It attracted the attention of the Trump administration, which regards antifa as a terrorist organization. In late August, U.S. authorities also labeled A/I a terrorist organization, alleging that it had supported antifa. NRC described the move as exceptional, noting that internet service providers are not usually held liable for what their users do.
Just looks like they were hosting traffic that Trump decided to label as Antifa and therefore Terrorist. No indication of what that traffic actually was.
So destroying their org wasn’t enough. Kinda seems like they know somebody in that community has information they’re trying to control…
It might be, but if you trace this from earlier, then I don’t think they are after a specific someone.
they want data, anything that is not accessible for them before, they want to have it. i mean plantir or any other “mossad agency” is creating digital ID for everyone as we speak, big data llm is capable to identify who and where and what you are in seconds, as long as you feed it data.
Primarily they are after information on the groups opposing their far right buddies trying to seize control of europe. Maybe some specific stuff too, but I thought that was clear.
I definitely concede there’s no way of knowing. And going for overkill fits the regime’s MO. Just felt odd, I guess, mainly because they have such an insane intelligence apparatus, actually.
Dude what the fuck
Amsterdam, I am extremely disappointed.
Makes me wonder about startpage, the search engine.
Fucking… No. I don’t want to be more disappointed. I’m already super disappointed with how everything’s going and have to actively work on forcing myself through the five stages of grief just to stay sane.
This timeline sucks fucking ass. The whole thing is disappointing. It feels like daily I organically end up thinking “_ can’t possibly be true, can it?” And then, yeah, some other pillar of reliability of normalcy and safety or long held hope is destroyed.
We are doing an absolute shite job of making the future brighter for our children and our children’s children.
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.
As required under fucking what?
Also, just to belabor the point, trump is Profa.
MLAT - Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty.
These treaties have been around since the 80’s, though I doubt they have been abused this way before.
Not valid unless it was a crime in the country the request is filed to. There’s no “they asked do we had to”
The claim is terrorism and violent extremism, which would be a crime that meets criteria. And again:
though I doubt they have been abused this way before.
I don’t understand why people on the Internet will argue with someone answering questions about legal stuff as if the answerer is supporting that position or something
Yeah so they need to present some basic evidence, not just an accusation
I’m not sure why you think I would know what evidence they were presented with just because I told you what they used.
as required under the American request for legal assistance.

Aye, these words do not match. Amsterdam loudly and proudly claims credit for hiding Anne Frank. Making it one of their core tourist attractions. And yet when modern day digital Anne Frank is on their turf they hand them over without question.
To this regime, the potential crimes that could be committed would be claiming to be against fascism.
It then moves on to these criteria: “Common threads animating this violent conduct include anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, and anti-Christianity; support for the overthrow of the United States Government; extremism on migration, race, and gender; and hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family, religion, and morality.”
So if you hate corporations, Imperialism, racism and gender bigotry, and speaking against those who hate anything different from their magic book
I hate all those things, put me on the list!
probably anti-israel/ links with epstein crimes.
I mean take your pick, could be anything from the below list.
Exposing the “Epstein Class” online
Organizing “anti genocide” rallies
Sharing awareness about workers rights
Fighting discrimination and racism
Campaigns to end the abusing of human rights
Creating anti capitalist movements
Whatever the US pedo leader is against
Don’t forget “Anti-Semitism” by criticizing Israel (although that’s part of the anti-genocide rallies)
Hopefully it was encrypted.
It was, but having offline access makes breaking it a matter of time, especially if you’re the CIA/NSA/DISA/whatever
A/I have years of experience with repression, i am pretty sure that encryption was one of the most important factors for them.
They explicitly recommend deleting emails with POP3. Well, recommended at least.
Why so many European countries are run by cowards with permanent knee pads on for the US is beyond me.
European countries are run by greedy fucks who love money and are generally fascist assholes.
As a European, I sadly agree.
Money
We thought the USA were the good guys, it takes some time to adjust and elect new representatives.
It will take generations for the US to regain the trust and respect it once had.
Nah that’s gone. It will take generation(s) to become a normal country we trust like a normal country. They really had it all; wealth, soft power, hard power, respect, trust, people saw up to them, wanted to be like them, and they just set it on fire, repeatedly, while dumping manure everywhere.
Amazing.
If history is any indicator, it will take one and a half generations of relative stability and everyone that matters will have forgotten. Probably there will be lingering, mostly misplaced bigotry (especially if there is nothing in the way of reparations) but there’s too much potential in the resources (markets, raw materials, laborers, tourism, etc) here to stay sidelined for long. Look at Germany, the UK, China, Japan, Italy, or Belgium. Colonialism, screwing allies, even outright genocide is papered over as soon as the populace blinks to keep things moving.
Or there’s the Bad Ending where far-right movements control more of the world and we’re a successful part of the new Axis powers.
Takes about 100x longer for our corrupt politicians to realise the most basic truths, too :(
What do you mean? We have the least corrupt governments in the world here in Europe. Sure, shit happens from time to time, but just look at Orbàn!
I hate this “both sides are bad”, “everything is bad”, it’s just playing to the Kremlin playbook.
you missed the plot. “least corrupt” (debatable) does not equal “not corrupt”.
eVeRyOnE is cOrRuPt
No they aren’t, bonehead.
As a Swede, I just notice people brush corruption under the rug because what they’re doing can’t possibly be corruption. We’re Sweden, we’re not corrupt. So even though they act corrupt, it can’t be corruption. A very infallible logical stance I see way too often here.
It’s always important to fight corruption!
I grew up in sweden (tjänna tjänna!) and it was so 0% corrupt it was wild to go and live in another country.
Sweden is still extremely not corrupt today too (6th place in the world).
Ha ha so funny, a let me Google that for you. You really outdid yourself this time.
Did you assume everyone is American?
Because if you think a little bit (or a lot depending how fast you are) you can figure out on which continent I live!!
I know it can be hard so here is a hint: it is not America!

One of these things is a lie. It really doesn’t matter which one.
And here I thought they kidnapped a waiter.
what 1984 bullshit is this that Anti-fascism = terrorism?
Dude, “antifa” has been labeled a terrorist organisation by the FBI, thanks to Orange Palpatine.
Smh they’re not even right about the meaning of the iron front symbol/“3 downward left arrows inside a circle” can’t believe my taxes go to these jabroni-hogs who can’t even get on wikipedia.
Fascists convinced the general population that they’re just “moderate conservatives”, because the nazis were defeated in 1945, nazis only did what they’ve done out of evil/race theory, and the few losers that are still actually nazis are just some skinheads with nazi-related face tattoos (and also they’re calling themselves nazis).
That orange asshole
If i read the source from NRC correctly (I’m dutch), the disks were already wiped. I think this is a matter of not letting a small incident irritate the orange monkey too much. Let’s keep that when it actually matters. Not getting some wiped disk with noting on it.
That still creates a procedural precedence. That means small orgs can get paralyzed from any US whim if they don’t have the means to quickly transfer their servers.
Now the US can ramp up the effort, asking for another server, and another, hey, here’s a list for now. The next one is coming in 3 days.
Okay, that’s more like hilarious malicious compliance, then. I pronounce the Dutch still cool
Cucked by fascism

Look at ASML and Nexperia. The Dutch government bend over and take it all the time. That happens when politicians have no spine and follow the lead of that cunt Mark Rutte. The one who called Trump ‘Daddy’.
Well, based on what I’ve read, - the “Dutch disease” is already a common term, and in this case ASML is like oil, they mostly employ foreign nationals and don’t contribute much to Netherlands’ education system or anything, but bring revenue.
Anyway, doesn’t seem to be anything specific to any specific country, it’s just that the kind of people who want to do this, can. Spirit of the time.
At the same time please remember how there were excuses all over the place to do such things against “far right”, that not being formulated as literal Nazis. Any kind of law-abiding conservatives (that is possible) have been pressed out from acceptable public discourse, so only trash that doesn’t care remains.
I mean, OK, shouldn’t really blame the public, of what I remember, that concept of what is “far right” and “toxic” and unfit for humanity was mostly a corporate policy in 2010s, so the very same people. The worst decade for public discourse honestly, I’ve recently realized that I’ve just forgotten how bad that really was, the stage of humanity where the most respectable and trendy people are teenage wh*res in Instagram and corporate shills in corporate ads.
And It’s important to remember this, feedbacks work, it’s better now. The wheels of history turn slowly and all that.
