Exactly. Some of these vigilantes are using this act as a cover to conduct violence against LGBT people.

I found the headline misleading because the phrase Signal security failure (with no quotes) could be incorrectly interpreted as Signal’s security failure instead of what it actually is, the Trump administration’s security failure. It’s not Signal’s fault that the Trump administration is incompetent, and the headline writer should have been more careful to make this clear.

The difference between Wikipedia and Facebook is that Wikipedia content is under a Creative Commons license which allows the entire encyclopedia to be forked. The entire Wikipedia database is continuously mirrored to servers in countries outside of the US, so Wikipedia can be resurrected in any other country if the situation you describe happens. In contrast, any Facebook content would be lost due to adverse government action.

Asking people to stop using Wikipedia is like asking people to stop using Linux because the Linux Kernel Organization is based in the US (California). There’s no comparable non-US alternative to either project, and the projects can be forked to different countries by their contributors without any action from the projects’ managing organizations. If you boycott Wikipedia, you also play into the hands of Elon Musk and other agitators who are attacking Wikipedia in an effort to redirect the public to right-wing US media sources.

Finally, part of my point was that Britannica is not an improvement over Wikipedia, because Britannica is also US-based. This is the reason I mentioned that Wikipedia editors are mostly from outside the US.

Yes, you have it reversed. The red (2020-24) is more recent than the blue (2015-19).

Britannica is headquartered in the US (Chicago) and most Wikipedia editors are not from the US, so I wouldn’t count out Wikipedia so quickly.

Trans women are women. The poster made a transphobic comment by falsely referring to trans women as “men”, which obviously disparages trans women.
