The Italian blogging platform NoBlogs, run by the activist collective Autistici/Inventati, was targeted by a data scientist associated with MAGA-aligned groups. Researcher Jennica Pounds, who previously worked for the US Department of Defense, created a project called DataRepublican that mapped approximately 7,600 anarchist and antifascist blogs hosted on NoBlogs. This mapping effort gained significance following a security breach of NoBlogs, where an unknown group compromised the platform's data, leading to temporary service outages and ongoing restoration efforts. While the mapping project was published, no direct link between the data obtained during the cyberattack and the DataRepublican database has been publicly established. AI
