March 11, 2024 (Monday): Hello MCN Announce List member. This is an independent free press test, not affiliated with MCN, by a fellow list member, like you. You should have seen a post by Cosmo Omsoc to the Announce Listserv list at MCN.org. It was sent at 11:11 am. If you see this page, please help us verify the list works by voting on a color (only once per person):
We will report back to announce@mcn.org after one week, when people should have had the chance to see this, even in the digest version of the Announce list. This test, if you will participate, will confirm that MCN, per it’s terms here, ( https://mcn.org/support/Listserv/atos/ ) is not currently being compelled to moderate the content of one or more users on the Mendocino Community Network Announce list. It will also confirm that the list is not being split. Splitting a list (e.g. for A/B testing of target markets) means only some posts are seen by some users on the larger list. Splitting can result on purpose or due to a technical error.
Thank you for helping News i8 verify that our collective First Amendment right to free speech and freedom of the independent free press (even fun semi-serious artistic free press like this web site!) is still intact in March of 2024.
