The AT Protocol PLC Directory allows a higher-priority rotation key to revert a key change for 72h. But what good is that window if you don't know about a change? Well, here's an Atom feed generator of PLC operations for any handle/DID.

One happy realization over the past day of wins is that this site can be a place where political magic happens. This comes as a shock to folks on other sites who say we are in a filter bubble. Makes it all the more important that non-billionare controlled spaces exist. Media diversity matters.
