i don’t want to sound mean here, but the whole point of an invite system is that only relatively trusted people can get in. giving invites away to anyone asking for it would mostly defeat the point.
basically an agreement between 14 countries to share signals intelligence amongst one another. effectively, if your data gets captured in Sweden, all the participating states are able to get their hands on it. check out the Wikipedia article for more details on 14 eyes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Eyes#Fourteen_Eyes
not to discredit what they do and what’s been said, but i think it’s important to keep in mind (with one’s threat model in mind also) that they’re based in Sweden, a 14 eyes country.
my deepest condolences… also don’t they re-open public registration on Nov 20? https://shitposter.club/notice/Aa34W1BLFyy3RuBB5M
