That's an interesting piece of history. It kind of makes sense that accessibility can sometimes be worth the potential downsides.

By the way, are you a fellow Tunisian? I'm kind of surprised because I've never run into a Tunisian on HN :p

Maybe one day I'll release an archive of pre-2011 emails and IRC logs.

Yes I'm Tunisian, I only know of a couple active people around here, but there is a ton of readers.

Wow, so you operated mail and IRC servers for use by dissidents pre-2011? I would definitely attend a talk about that! A blog post would be amazing too.

I see, that's great to hear. I don't live in Tunisia, so I'm not familiar with the Tunisian tech scene. Judging by your Twitter feed, it seems to be really active, which is awesome!

Nothing that impressive, I was just a bystander, I had a bot that logged IRC conversations on certain rooms and I subscribed to a number of mailing lists.

I just need to find the time to filter that data and publish something.
