   Seems like Pawoo got bought up by Suji Yan who already owns 2 other major Masto instances.
   This is really concerning, because not only is the company run by foreigners (https://web.archive.org/web/20221027022343/https://sujitech.com/), it really seems like 1 company tries to centralize all the (Japanese) instances under 1 company too.
   Does he ultimately try to become the BlackRock of Fedi instances?
   
   Suji himself is full of red flags; studied in Americuck, foreign urinalist in Japan, stereotypical soyboy, self-doxes real name and face on soycial media (on Fedi at least, not as much on Shitter).........
   Especially worrying considering that Pawoo was always a pro-loli instance, which might change with owners like these.
   
   While I don't worry about 076 SNS and GNU Social JP as much because both are tiny and the owners are smart enough to know it's important to remain independent, I do kind of worry about Fedibird, Juggler, and Misskey.io, as these could potentially be for sale next.

     @ryo I would probably compare him to Jim Watkins (owner of both 8kun and 2ch) than BlackRock.

     Really? I can't find about Pawoo but only: https://www.itmedia.co.jp/news/articles/2006/11/news081.html
     
     Also I think they two are chinks, look at their News section, their face and their name. Their rich asset implies they are not that simple. It looks like it's China pretending to other countries to make them acceptable... wolf in a sheep's clothing.

     Today I learned that they renamed "Web3" to "DWeb" to make it into a much bigger lie than that it already was I guess.
