So, this might seem like a stupid question on face value, but I’ll go further in detail.
Everyone talks about getting a personal website so you can freely express yourself without getting beaten up by typical Social Media companies. While I fully agree with that, there are a few issues I have thought of:
Firstly, (assuming self-hosting isnt an option) won’t you have to use google or AWS to host your website? And if you post something “they don’t like”, nothing is stopping them from just ban-hammering your website.
Secondly, even if you get a stable host, getting a domain is a completely different issue with the same causes; they could just revoke your domain if, again, you say something “they don’t like”.
With all that being said, would anyone have any remedies for these issues? Are there any privacy/free-speech respecting web hosts and domain suppliers?
Thank you for your responses! :D
Do you really think this? That a big tech company would have an interest in the content of a personal blog of such?
I’m not saying it is likely, I’m just saying it’s a possibility.
Also, Amazon and Google are still, well, Amazon and Google, so the more i can get my personal website out of their mitts the better.
If you want to be sure, what I would do is host it on my local machine and not use a typical domain, but set up and run it as an onion over tor.
A couple iceland based privacy respecting providers :)
Yes, just don’t assume that self-hosting is out of the question
Have you ever heard of stormfront?
