At this point being banned might be a good thing to drive home the point that also my favorite of the old corporate internet platforms should be avoided. I’m doing quite okay on staying away from Meta and have long deleted my Twitter account. I can’t get myself do drop Reddit somehow. Seems like they’re only helping me get off my addiction
My link for this was deleted. Huh. I didn’t see this earier.
Anyways I think this is a dangerous chilling effect and reddit has a terrible track record for not using this as intended, so I can only expect Reddit Admins to use this beyond warning, I expect bans and this used in warrants/NSLs quickly.
Stop using reddit, stop going to reddit. And bring everyone you can to Lemmy. I want to be able to cut out my city subreddits like /r/Denver like a clean shit.
This is my first comment from Lemmy. Thanks again to whomever suggested it.
Conform, citizen.
So, stop upvoting those luigi memes. How sad
Reminds me of back in 2013 when Reddit admins accidentally revealed that Eglin Air Force Base, a location often cited as the source of government social-media propaganda/astroturfing programs, was the most Reddit addicted city in the world.
To be fair, every Air Force base had higher than average Reddit usage back in the day. It was one of the few websites not blocked by default. I don’t know when that changed, Because I was out before then.
But yes, there are also the propaganda teams.
I would expect Moscow or St Petersburg.
can someone explain to me the difference between corporate and government censorship, when corporations and the government are definitely fucking?
One is illegal, the other is not.
and does that word mean anything in this context?
No. Nothing reddit is doing is illegal. When you sign up for a service like reddit, there is a TOS, which allows them to ban, warn, limit interaction, etc, at their discretion when terms of their TOS are violated.
If their TOS doesn’t allow pictures of butterflies, and you post pictures of butterflies, you will receive a warning. Continue posting butterflies, you’ll get banned, until eventually receiving a permaban. There is absolutely nothing illegal about it, because their TOS specifically states no butterfly pictures.
People get mad over government censorship, but condone corporate censorship if it’s something they want censored.
Going against an agreement you agreed to abide by is not censorship. If you don’t like the agreement, don’t agree to it.
Agreeing to be censored doesn’t mean you’re not being censored.
Lol. The pro-censorship crowd really is a site to behold. Glad I’m not loyal to it!
I’m gonna buy a Luigi board to ask the guidance of Aaron Schwartz because I’m sure he is dying to get revenge
r/fuckreddit
First the removesort by controversial, and then you can’t even see controversial posts. Soon there will be no conflicting opinions, just a hive mind echo chamber.
Yeah I got signaled on reddit for saying something about Trump, Elon and Vance regarding to Ukraine. Nothing that hasn’t been said, but I said they can fuck off and stop propping Russian imperialism and kidnapping children while commiting warcrimes. Guess Reddit is against that as they removed my comment and gave me a warning.
Also biased admins, there are places that are manipulated for disinformation purposes. It is kind of scary, when the sceptical view point gets deleted or thread blocked for no other reason than harming their often made up narrative.
Edit. Thread blocked as in you are blocked from posting and they can have a last rotten cherry on top
fuck reddit
you know it’s bad when ohanian and rose have gotten together to make a new digg
Spez has gone so far beyond being a mere cuck. He’s a goddamn cuckasauras.
