.org is administered by Identity Digital and they are obligated to comply with terror sanctions. The US is embedded at virtually every level of the internet infrastructure and with the magic weapon of “sanctions” can force almost everyone else from providing services to any entity

autistici.org is down in the EU, their domain name does not exist anymore. how did they do that? surely they didn’t use a USA based registrar.
inventati.org seems to be up for now

both domains seem to be registered with gandi.net, so it’s interesting only one of them got taken down

It’s kind of insane how much control the U.S. has over everything

this is insane and absolutely unacceptable. I guess this is the end of .org and such being a good choice for a domin name. if the operator is not willing to fall in line with the openly fascist USA, they can and will just take you down too

was there at least any legal procedure through Italian courts? or did they just decide to single handedly censor a whole organization?

I imagine it’s the latter, I can’t find anything relating to the Italian government participating in this online

Italy didn’t do anything. The US decided unilaterally to disable their org domain. If any, some Italian political parties have presented a parliamentary interrogation on the matter

That will take a few years, but if the domain name company isn’t Italian, then the court can’t really do anything.
So A/I just needs to change domain name providers. No biggie.
