[governance] <nettime> riseup server seized

If this server is part of a network, then it's configuration and 
contents are most likely already stored somewhere and it can be brought 
up to life again "reborn" at the same place. Or in any other place on 
Internet. No real harm done to the network... so in a way, the 
"complaint" of the event is just to make some publicity out of the case.

On the other hand, about the only reason the police might want to seize 
a server like this (assuming it is indeed true that messages leave no 
traces in logs etc) is to learn about the technology being used, which 
might help them spy on such servers more effectively.
