Outposting is an active strategy.
It's something you can use to support healthy independent networks and it's something you can use *in* the bad places.
You don't have to be active on facebook to outpost there. Let a thousand links to your toots bloom, if you like.
It's also something we should be cautious of. Because we're open, we're also open to tolerating our network being used in this way too.
A 21st century enclosure is possible.
