Digital Ocean apparently cut off hosting as the abortion whistleblower site is now using Epik (of Gab, Parler, 8chan fame) for both name servers and as its registrar. The site switched its registrar from GoDaddy to Epik a few hours ago and briefly used Digital Ocean for hosting. https://twitter.com/...

GoDaddy says it gave Texas Right to Life, an abortion “whistleblower” website, 24 hours to find a new hosting provider before cutting off service

There are a ton of headlines saying Apple “delayed” this plan but Apple never announced a release date other than “this year,” and the statement that it will “take additional time over the coming months” doesn't necessarily prevent it from being released before the end of 2021 https://twitter.com/...
