Judged? The judge. That is a typo. A funny typo but a typo nonetheless, lol.

Germany's "dark field" child abuse prevention program has been criticized for being ineffectual, and possibly, even harmful and counter-productive.

Whatever they come up with, I'm expecting them to respect human rights, including the rights to freedom of expression, privacy, and due process.

The judged pointed out that:

Texas didn't bother to educate parents about content filtering tools, or at the very least, they didn't put this as an argument in the lawsuit.

This meant that it wasn't the least intrusive possible measure they could have taken.

Verifying people's government identification also means the government might monitor what content someone is viewing, and that this has a substantial chilling effect on free expression.

Also, the First Amendment applies. #FreeSpeech

By the way, the judge in Texas completely eviscerated the government's arguments when he granted that injunction against the anti-porn law.

Apparently, the ACLU (I haven't heard their name in quite some time, it's usually the EFF) has filed a complaint with the FTC against MasterCard for engaging in discriminative practices against sex workers.

It's not typically that (or just that) which tears down puritans, it is also the complete lack of scientific basis for their arguments (also their lack of principle).

I have fairly consistent values.

I don't follow the meme that "it is okay because Japan is doing it", and then, snap at an American doing the same thing.

I actually find that kind of hilarious.

It's the nerd equivalent of "won't anyone please think of the children?".

Someone thought that this makes it *better* somehow, however, it doesn't because it can't even be argued that it's led to a practical impact.

The wild thing about HE is that their actions there not only set a very dangerous precedent, it also has precisely zero impact on the availability of a certain site.

It's setting a precedent so we "feel like we're doing something".

Looking at another instance, it's interesting that Mastodon counts posts as "posts today" rather than "posts in the last 24 hours".

"today" is very arbitrary when you consider differing timezones.

Also, I would wind up opening up a hosepipe of like a post every five minutes 24/7/365.
