Buongiorno!
Verissimo che le dichiarazioni di solidarietà, da sole, non bastano. Ma se A/I è stata distrutta è perché aveva delle vulnerabilità, che forse sarebbe meglio non replicare creando "un'altra risorsa dello stesso tipo".
Forse i tempi richiedono altro. Questo, per lo meno, mi sembra di capire sia il pensiero della gente che ha tirato su A/I, a giudicare da questo CS:

la domandona è: oltre a scrivere che A/I è stata una risorsa e un'esperienza fondamentale, e che it'a shame che le abbiano impedito di continuare a operare, c'è qualcuno che sia in grado di delineare un modo per costruire un'altra risorsa dello stesso tipo, che sia in grado di farlo, e che lo faccia?

Non mi sembra sia già passato in lista.In solidarity with Autistici/Inventati
Independent spaces for digital communication under attack
We are artists, educators, curators, and professionals in the field of digital culture, and we view with concern what has happened to the Autistici/Inventati association.
On August 26, 2026, the United States added the Italian collective Autistici/Inventati to its list of anti-terrorism sanctions, accusing it of providing online services to violent groups. This occurred without any trial and without the association having received any formal complaint. The secondary sanctions resulting from this action prompted Banca Etica to close the association’s bank account and seize the donations deposited by users. These were people who were using the services that Autistici/Inventati offered for free.
With no way to process payments, under the threat of possible individual consequences for the collective and its users, and without a legal framework to defend itself, Autistici/Inventati was forced to shut down.
For 25 years, Autistici/Inventati provided 20,000 email accounts, 10,000 blogs on the NoBlogs platform, 5,000 mailing lists, and 1,500 websites.
It offered these services free of charge to anyone who shared the principles of anti-fascism, anti-racism, anti-sexism, anti-homophobia, anti-transphobia, anti-militarism, and non-commercialism. With the exception of the last one, all of these principles are also enshrined in the Italian Constitution in Articles 3 and 11, as well as in the Twelfth Final Transitional Provision. In addition, Article 21 establishes the right to freely express one’s thoughts through speech, writing, and any other means of communication.
The principles of anti-racism, anti-sexism, anti-homophobia, and anti-transphobia are also enshrined in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, in Articles 1, 3, 7, 20, and 21. Anti-fascism is not explicitly mentioned but can be inferred from the articles cited above and from Article 54. Anti-militarism is not explicitly mentioned, but Article 10, Article 3, and the preamble to the Charter make explicit reference to the pursuit of peace and conscientious objection.
Over the course of these 25 years, Autistici/Inventati has provided the opportunity to freely express one’s thoughts through independent digital infrastructures. In this context, freedom of thought and opinion has never been an abstract concept, but a practice shared for 25 years by thousands of people; a practice that has given rise to a vast archive of underground culture built from the ground up. We extend our deepest solidarity to those who have been doxxed by the Trump-aligned right for expressing their views on NoBlogs.org.
Over the past 25 years, Autistici/Inventati has been the place where so many projects in the field of digital culture have come to life and taken root. It has been the place where many have learned what the Internet is and how to be a part of it. Digital culture in Italy would not be the same without Autistici/Inventati. The concept of a free and independent Internet would not be the same.
- We consider it dangerous to set a precedent whereby those who provide communication services could be accused of facilitating acts of terrorism. Because what happened to Autistici/Inventati could happen to others.
- We also consider this incident to be unlawful, as it strikes at the very heart of net neutrality, constitutes collective censorship without judicial safeguards, and could happen to any other platform.
- We believe that the U.S. government’s decision is a violation of the constitutional rights that every citizen should enjoy, both under the Italian Constitution and under the rights enshrined in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.
- We hope to see the launch of a legislative debate on Europe’s digital autonomy within the Italian and European political spheres; a debate that asserts the rights enshrined in their founding principles in the face of another government’s overreach.
- We demand that the right to express one’s thoughts be protected as a fundamental and inviolable right in every person’s life, and that it never again be subject to the unilateral decisions of any head of state, the profit motives of an internet service provider, or the control of top-level domain operators.Italian
