Drs. S Sigoloff, P Chambers, and T Long. Department of Defense whistleblowers downloaded a massive trove of unclassified data (to download the Excel file see the link “Data from the DMED
Off-topic, but hijacking as I feel compelled to raise awareness of the risk that with 94% of the Internet controlled by BigTech, we may be on the verge of completely losing the information war unless steps are taken to look at alternate platforms including private data center hosting.
Microsoft Azure isn't far behind as Microsoft corporate has already signified its willingness to censor doctors on LinkedIn sharing life-saving early treatment information.
I see no contingency planning such as scoping out the use of private data centers. As an infrastructure architect working in the DoD, I understand the need for risk mitigation, but can't seem to communicate the message.
There are several misconceptions about hosting on cloud versus on-premises.
1) You don't need to use a cloud provider to host web and data or to have high-speed fault tolerant Internet access.
2) Colocation centers at least at this point only care about network disruption and spam and do not normally monitor content - I know that my colocation doesn't.
3) Servers, memory, storage are all still cheap even with supply-chain issues - cheaper than paying for providers.
4) Servers can be hosted just as securely in a colocation as on a cloud provider, you can implement data-at-rest encryption so even if confiscated, they are secure, use multi-factor authentication to protect against intrusion, and employ the same advanced security mechanisms that cloud providers do.
5) Colocation costs are inexpensive and reliable. A level-3 center provides at least 99.99 guarantees with backup power and redudant high-speed Internet. I pay just $550.00 for power and space per month to host the equivalent processing power that would require at least $1,500 from Amazon or AWS - over 2 TB of RAM, 40 TB of ultra high-speed NVME storage, and 128 virtualized cores on 4 physical severs. And that comes with 20 IPs and 1 Gbe up and down Internet with capability to expand at low cost.
6) Most services provided on the public Internet also have options for on-premises hosting. You don't need substack or even a cloud provider to have substack like capability, if that is the next one on the chopping block. WordPress, database platforms such as SQL Server, Windows hosting, Linux hosting can all be done on-premises. The majority of customers of cloud platforms don't leverage anything more than infrastructure-as-a-service and don't take advantage of software or platform as a service. Meaning, most can lift and shift back to their own data center if push came to shove without loss of capability.
I've been trying to put together an alt-tech initiative to address the issue as well as services to capture and index all of the relevant data from reputable sources that are now filtered out by most Internet search engines such as Google. This is an area up my wheelhouse as I have 2 master's degrees and a PhD in computer science and have held roles designing enterprise data, software, infrastructure, and cybersecurity architectures for both cloud and on-premises over the last 35 years.

I'd match up to 15K myself just to host a conference, but no takers. I'm a technology guru, not a marketing expert. I've no desire to profit from this, my colocation is exclusively for my own data science experimentation and for helping people looking into setting up testing platforms without any cost. I am happily employed in a well-paying job and no intent to leave at this point so do this all in my spare time. I am just interested in suggestions in how to get this ball rolling and start bringing together other people like me into a common forum on a part-time basis. If there are 10,000 IT professionals out there interested in donating part-time efforts toward solutions willing to do 5 hours per week on that, it is 50,000 manhours of effort per week. Surely something could be accomplished with that level of effort to start mitigating risks.

Fact Check: DOD Whistleblowers' 'Mind Blowing COVID Vaccine Injury Numbers' Were NOT Based On Accurate Data, Pentagon Says

👍 You made exactly the same point as Dr. Robert Malone in his Substack:

Does anyone trust what comes out of the gov agencies now? CYA time with them.
Has there been an increase in Graves disease post Pfizer?

Just wondering, was there anything down besides Freedom? Come on post all the bad, but really, anything at all medical that was down????
