also for context this is a shorter version and represents well the situation https://www.inventati.org/who/collective

"After 2005 we have been constantly pestered by prosecutors and security forces (and even by the Vatican! [4]) asking us to hand over users’ data and identities and we are proud to say we were always able to answer: we are sorry, but we do not have them."

This is tech guys supporting with infra real freedom of speech! even more important nowadays! jumping to the violent antifa narrative means ignoring a lot of important things.

Not wanting to provide free services to someone isn’t the same as not supporting free speech

		It's also not the same as supporting free speech. That's why I asked: what did the authors ever do to _support_ free_speech, i.e., speech that they _don't_ agree with? You don't get credit for supporting dissemination of your own views only. That's just “free speech for me, but not for thee”.
