US Designates Italy-Based Antifa Tech Collective Autistici/Inventati as Global Terrorist
Designation of Autistici/Inventati as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist
The U.S. State Department and Treasury have designated Autistici/Inventati (A/I Collective), an Italy-based group, as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist. The collective allegedly provides encrypted communication and digital infrastructure—including email, web hosting, and anonymity tools—to violent far-left extremist groups worldwide, such as Rose City Antifa and Jane's Revenge. The designation blocks U.S. assets and prohibits transactions, part of a broader effort against transnational far-left terrorism.
The A/I Collective exclusively offers its tools and services to radical left-wing actors and manually vets all potential users for ideological affinity before granting them access to its infrastructure.
