infosec.exchange is an instance on the ActivityPub fediverse which allows the presence of CISA, a US "Homeland Security" agency. Because of this, many other instances are defederating from them, and TootCat decided on 2022-11-23 to invoke a silence on 11/30 so as to give users a chance to do any migration or following that would not be possible afterwards.

Incidents

  • 2022-11-22 scholar.social/@researchfairy: «It took ~ 35 mins for users on infosec.exchange to start sending us harassing messages» after S.S briefly re-federated with I.E to allow a user to migrate there. (There is additional discussion in the thread.)
