After Sadiq Saif of IFTAS Inc.
-
- After Sadiq Saif of IFTAS Inc. (Independent Federated Trust and Safety) fantasized to kill feminazi trans women with an AK-47
- After he recorded a 28 minutes attack video on a trans woman who never interacted with him before that
- After IFTAS concealed evidence of this association
- After the same IFTAS company lionized the work of the man who took issue with my defense of fellow survivors of rape
- After their promotion of anti-LGBTQIA+ initiatives i will document
- After their constantly coddling a clique of abusers who encourage death threats and doxxing, people who make Queer Fedi so miserable we have a mental health crisis among our administrators
I urge we no longer tolerate IFTAS Inc at the table in questions of community safety. This nonprofit company purports to provide “Trust and Safety” for Bluesky and Mastodon, yet are the source of the very sort of harm Trust and Safety is supposed to prevent.
I do not suggest a defederation or fediblock, which makes zero sense here, but that Queer Fedi spheres must make it as clear this adversarial company has zero buy-in from us, and should not be tolerated at the table when we discuss questions of Trust and Safety.
Instead of allowing this nonprofit to talk over us, the Fediverse community must critically re-assess the incredible cruelty normalized in our backchannels politics, causing Queer Fedi administrators to face a true mental health crisis, leading many of our administrators to quit for their mental safety constantly.
I explain the problem in great detail, with all the receipts you could possibly ask for, and a lot of surprising info you certainly didn’t know, on this page, which also contains a quickly grasped summary in the form of frequent pull quotes:

I wrote this article due to IFTAS platforming a man who took issue with my fellow survivors of rape on the fediverse, unprovoked. However, i write in detail about the entire clique involved, documenting many incidents such as various death threats, and establish very clear patterns of misbehavior.
An archive link for this blog post, and a link to a Bluesky thread, will be provided in a follow-up post, in case my server faces problems soon after publication.
I will not reply in private.
I won’t tag fediblock: after IFTAS’ employee used that tag to ask for donations to go to therapy, it’s hard to imagine anyone out there still taking it seriously–but i write out the word to make sure it hits the wordfilters people use for their mental health.

Here is a Bluesky thread on the topic:
https://bsky.app/profile/woofwoofwoofwoof.bsky.social/post/3lecjzxfffc2eWhen sharing the article in the previous post, i strongly encourage you to make your own thread about it, with your own opinion and your own experiences, rather than silently boosting the OP. It will allow us to make our voices better heard, spread out the hate, and work around defederation.
