    1. CounterSocial
      from More talk. Less stalk.
      Counter.Social is the first Social Network Platform to take a zero-tolerance approach to hostile nations and bot accounts weaponizing OUR social media platforms and freedoms to engage in influence operations against us. While CounterSocial is part of the wider Mastodon network, we are a modified, hardened node, unafraid to engage in cyber countermeasures. We also actively block nodes and access to our community from IP space originating in Russia, China, North Korea, Iran, Pakistan and Syria, along with over 100,000 VPN and proxy services.

      @bobjonkman Blocking by geographical IP? That sounds dumb. But instances can have any policy they choose.

        @bob @bobjonkman Whether you agree with it ideologically or not, geo-ip blocking is not a great technical solution anyways because it relies on the IP belonging to the country it was originally delegated to, and since portable IPs are a thing (and indeed most were portable initially), this makes it notoriously fickle at best.  If you use geo-ip blocking you need to do it as part of a multi-factor analysis.

      I get it, but I don't think it's the way to move the world forward.

      @bobjonkman It's still the anti-porn mastodon though.
