In these days of rabid, ideological and groundless repression you have often asked us: “How can we support you?”
From The Intercept by C. Frances, September 10 2026
A far-right hacker that touts cyber attacks on leftist sites has close ties to DataRepublican, the X account of a Pentagon employee.
It was a bad week for the Autistici/Inventati collective.
From C4SS
We live in a world of surveillance states, militarized police, and crackdowns on dissent. Meanwhile, corporate behemoths will often ally with the state to shut down dissident speech or aid and abet surveillance.
From Keep the Internet Free - Sep 6, 2026
The day we discovered we had been designated a global terrorist organization, we promised that we would try to resist as long as this was possible, that we would not back down as long as we could see options to stand our ground. For years, we have proudly maintained and defended a free, privacy-friendly, autonomous and politically committed infrastructure.

This interview was conducted in writing with Autistici/Inventati following its August 26, 2026 designation by the United States under Executive Order 13224.

The Final Straw is a weekly anarchist and anti-authoritarian radio show bringing you voices and ideas from struggle around the world. Since 2010, we’ve been broadcasting from occupied Tsalagi land in Southern Appalachia (Asheville, NC). We also frequently feature commentary (serious and humorous) by anarchist prisoner, Sean Swain.
From Autistici/Inventati
On August 26, 2026, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, through OFAC - the bureau that manages and enforces economic and financial sanctions -, sanctioned Autistici/Inventati (A/I), an Italian collective that since 2001 has provided digital infrastructure to movements and activists: email, hosting, mailing lists, chat, videoconferencing, streaming, and services related to privacy and anonymity. Washington designated it as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT), claiming that it provided financial, material or technological support to terrorism and to organizations already under sanctions. A/I rejects the accusations and maintains that its work consists of providing tools for digital self-defense and infrastructure for the freedom of communication.
We deny all allegations included in the statements, while we strongly affirm our dedication to providing a platform of tools for digital self-defense, addressing the need of free communication for activists and other individuals, groups and associations.
From Sabot Media
For twenty-five years, an Italian hacker collective has built communications infrastructure designed to survive censorship, surveillance and police raids. On August 26, the United States designated it a terrorist organization. On September 25, the wind-down period ends.
From CrimethInc.
On August 26, 2026, the United States government classified the Italian collective Autistici/Inventati as a “Specially Designated Global Terrorist,” citing the collective’s “far-left” politics to justify the designation. They announced similar designations of the British group Palestine Action and the transnational Palestinian movement Masar Badil in the same statement.
