Topic: Email Censorship

A No Agenda producer reported receiving "Error 554" when trying to send emails via Yahoo, which the company's policy page attributes to "objectionable links." The hosts warn that major email providers are actively scanning outgoing content and blocking messages that violate internal policies, urging listeners to move to private servers.

John C. Dvorak discusses technical issues with his email server, including the mysterious deletion of his alias files. He also complains about aggressive spam filters that blacklisted the word "nipples," preventing a listener from sending a story about a "Dr. Oz" show producer's strange request for a guest.

The concept of "digital prepping" is introduced as a way to maintain communication if traditional internet governance becomes restrictive. Listeners are encouraged to use alternative DNS providers like the OpenNIC Project to avoid ISP-level redirection to Google servers. The long-term necessity of running private email and DNS servers to bypass potential United Nations-led censorship is emphasized.
