How a leftist network used by terrorists operated in plain sight for years

Leftists used a foreign technology group’s tools to encourage crimes in the United States across multiple presidencies with near impunity. Now, they have one month to stop or face legal consequences.

The State and Treasury Departments sanctioned the Italy-based Autistici Inventati Collective as a “Specially Designated Global Terrorist” on Wednesday for providing digital services such as NoBlogs, a blogging platform that hosts numerous radical leftist sites. NoBlogs users follow a long-standing anarchist tradition of posting anonymous articles — sometimes called communiques or report-backs — that openly take credit for violent attacks or call for further illegal behavior. The A/I Collective publicly offers NoBlogs, encrypted communication, and other tools only to “anti-fascism” activists to keep their data off-grid from traditional corporate platforms and inaccessible to law enforcement, the State Department noted.
