  • That moment when genocide deniers unironically cite the ADL and call other sources biased

  • Nvm, it's a different federation glitch causing this, the one that leads you to the wrong places.

  • I don't think a ban would be seen as ceasing to be a ban just because there are federation glitches right now that causes the ban to fail to be federated (not to be confused with a community you are "banned" from and only your instance can interact with you in), but whatever. You're probably right. Assuming you're even anyone who has been here before.

    I cited Snopes too.

    This does undermine the OP's point.

  • The ban itself is not the legal issue, it's just an extension of it.

  • That's not the same person. Notice how the order of the community bans don't match up. Joey just wanted to sound like a hero again.

  • I guess it could functionally be an instance ban if literally every single comm moderator got together and banned a user from every single comm on an instance…

    It's more like a federation glitch. The modlogs don't always represent a situation correctly. Hence what you said after that. On my end, it appears as multiple communities. So I stand corrected.

  • Oh. I read those all as different people. My bad.

  • "Anti-AI troll" appears in more than just those two. That's shorthand for being concerned with copyright.

  • It's 100% possible to block a website in one country that comes from another country. It doesn't affect the website in its own country, but it still prevents the website from being usable in the country that blocked it.

    In the past, I too may have said he's probably not aware of the fediverse, but then a fediverse mod blew up a fertility clinic a few weeks ago. That at least puts us all on the far edges of the NSA's radar. Even Kiwi Farms has never produced any mass saboteurs.

  • The artist doesn't need to be an artist-for-profit for it to apply. They just need to be someone who can say they spent all day on an art piece. The incentive for that goes away when it amounts to something that other people can enjoy without any boundaries.

  • Sometimes those rules reflect a personal choice. Sometimes they reflect ethics. And sometimes they are protecting themselves from the law.

    Almost every instance has defederated from Burggit because its terms of service mention they will turn a blind eye to pedo content. Pedo content, quite obviously, is highly illegal (at least in the majority of first world nations), which shouldn't have to be mentioned to people. Nobody is applying that logic to Burggit.

  • When a government blocks a website in a country, they do so by registering the website's name on a list of websites held by the internet providers. They can do this to any website federated with a certain website they want blocked until they're all blocked. They have blocked email providers before, if you want a rough model of how this would work.

  • I haven't used their platform for the very reason that I wouldn't follow their rule.

    There is no “fediverse” to shut down.

    Unless you're the government. The government has power over the internet providers.

  • I counted way more than two communities. That's often said to mean it's an instance ban.

    In case people missed it (I will assume good faith here), “anti-AI troll” is another way of saying “this person is concerned about copyright”.

    So I tried these two things out. Turns out they're 100% true.
