@onrust The U.K. Home Office has never really been known for their adherence to human rights, but they've been especially bad over the past five years.

@ploum A site ran by a billionaire has foul content. Well, you know how things go, policy and moderation is impossible to get right at scale. You can't make everyone happy.

Oh boy, there is an obscure site (which happens to use the AP protocol) no one here is ever going to interact with (federation is lazy / conservative, as well as other things) which contains content which offends me. I am outraged.

I saw those very examples once from their circles. There is also nothing which can really change the calculus for them, they really don't want to use a platform not run by a Silicon Valley tech bro.

@metaning @ploum Wow, it's nice to see someone who calls it out for how it is.

@ploum There is a passage in their policies which literally appears to have been lifted from QAnon (rather than being the consequence of a deliberate and well-thought out policy effort), and some of their behavior already points to such.

I think it's going to be another nest of out of touch Silicon Valley tech bros. It's unfortunate, but they can't seem to help themselves.

@ploum I've also seen people who practically behave like shills for Facebook which is... Weird to say the least.

@Ragashingo @anicasts https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_law_of_the_United_States
"The length of copyright established by the Founding Fathers was 14 years, plus the ability to renew it one time, for 14 more."

If it weren't for copyright being extended over and over, with how old some games are getting, they'd be falling out of copyright already (and you wouldn't have that problem).

@Ragashingo Who'd have thought a former piracy site would become an anime monopoly.
