A few words to explain who we are

The autistici.org/inventati.org server is an independent server run by an association, to be precise a non-profit association, born from the fusion of several projects spread all over Italy. The server is run on a voluntary basis and none of those who follow it earns money from their efforts.

Since March 2001, the association's aim has been to give everybody (with a few clear limitations (see our manifesto) access to electronic non-commercial communication services, ensuring greater confidentiality and freedom of speech than similar commercial providers do. Besides this technical function, the association develops campaigns on privacy, anonymity, conscious and critical use of information technology, access to knowledge, objection to control.

The server hosts 4,700 mailboxes, 600 mailing lists (used by 30,000 people totally, whose mailbox is not necessarily hosted in the autistici.org/inventati.org server), and over 500 websites, while providing chat and other services. Our efforts for offering confidential and reliable communication has led many people to choose the server for their websites and e-mail: from political collectives to a whole range of activists, associations, lawyers, legal services, self-organized workers groups, student groups and collectives, international networks and much, much more.
