For those seeking an official announcement, please refer to the ?release notes for Misskey v2026.3.0, where it is briefly mentioned. This security update was announced in advance to Misskeyās major servers and enterprise sponsors, and prompt action is expected from them as well.
For instances of sufficiently large instance (>~50 MaU) who are unable to apply patches at that time, our maintainer (@julia) would like to give a one time offer to apply patches on the behalf of instance administrators.
If you are physically unable to apply patches and meet the requirements, please direct message her for further information.
This is your official notice that weāll be making a major security release for Sharkey tomorrow (between 1773007200 and 1773014400) in coordination with Misskey. Please be ready to patch your instances soon as humanly possible, as the vulnerabilities at play are extremely severe. Note that IceShrimp and Firefish derivatives are not affected, only direct forks of Misskey.
I feel like calling this a āwarā is pure semantic games. Itās not a war, not at all. Itās a one-sided, preemptive strike by a big guy against a little guy. Like, what is the victory condition here? The US has neutralised the supreme leader already. War implies that there is some equivalent on both sides, but while Iran is an armed military state, it has no way of actually striking the USA. Thereās nobody in the US who is remotely physically threatened. Add to the fact that there are no boots on the ground, so the most exposed that the US is to the conflict is pilots flying over the airspace. The US does not feel anything from the conflict, while Iran feels everything.
Jean Beaudrillard wrote in the 1990s that āThe Gulf War Did Not Take Placeā. He argued that while there was a conflict there, the vast majority of the work of the conflict wasnāt the fighting, but in creating the spectacle of fighting. The spectacle of war, to make it seem cool and palatable for the viewing public. The war is for YOU to believe that the USA is doing good. That every bomb thrown by Iran is somehow more destructive than the myriad weapons the USA and Israel are throwing at Iran.
As far as people in the imperial core are concerned, there really isnāt a war because they will never feel it directly. There is only the visual awe of war, where the other side of the battle is supressed to make it feel like this is A Good Thing
You can compare this to what is happening in Gaza. The media vacated the space of reporting on it, and the governments of the west barely massaged their messaging, which allows us to see real, authentic footage of what is happening there.
Meanwhile, the US is constantly flooding the media with curated imagery to bolster itself, in order to make itās aspirations grander than they actually are
This only ends when the US gets itās aim, which is⦠Unknowable. It changes every week. Itās sometimes Regime change, sometimes not. Sometimes itās liberation, sometimes not.
What is a war that has no defined end? It is an atrocity.
