Wizard.casa is under observation for unsafe practices. Admin behavior matters — bullying and avoiding accountability can shape how systems are built. If trust and dignity are ignored in communities, the same risks appear in technology. Accountability and safety must go hand in hand.

⚠️ Observation on Wizard.casa & User Safety
Wizard.casa is a Fediverse instance currently under my observation for wellbeing and security concerns regarding internet users.
Recently, one of their members shared this project:

At first glance, it looks like just another technical experiment. But here’s an independent perspective on why this matters beyond the code:
- **Wellbeing risks** → When someone bullies others and avoids accountability in community roles, there’s a real danger that they’ll also build systems that disregard user dignity and safety. Convenience may be prioritized over protection.
- **Trust risks** → If someone is untrustworthy as an admin, how can they be trusted as a developer of communication tools? The Fediverse and Yggdrasil overlap in spaces where privacy and anonymity are crucial — and where bad actors can cause real harm.
Tech cannot be separated from accountability. The way people treat communities is often the way they will design systems.

> I can imagine a culture in which such a discovery would be made without anyone planning to use it for a bomb. This would be a high culture. But making a bomb was an idea all too natural in #WesternCulture in which technological superiority was so integral to subduing other world cultures... I'm not saying #technology is all bad, or even neutral. It needs to be seen as ambivalent in the human context...
