So… unstable government with increasing internet censorship.
Right? Like “turns out it’s just…” implies that the U.S. isn’t 50 states in a trench coat where the federal government changing hands means there isn’t the constant major changing of policy every few years from center-right fence-sitters to chaotic-evil fascists and back again.

The Regressive Era
Has been since Reagan.
Since
NixonMcCartyYeah… Nixon was flying a cessna while Reagan was strapping into an SR-71… No less culpable tho.
Back again? No. Center-right fence sitters do not move the status quo. They preserve it wherever it lands.
I mean fair but there are some positives, at least. Even the bad democrats will do, or at least not outright kill, some good stuff.
Well the trench coat…I was about to say a fairly recent addition but some states are younger than that. There was a time when we said “The United States are…” rather than 'The United States is…"
We are, after all, the world’s oldest surviving Federation.
That’s really just the world getting used to it. The country may be a fucking disaster but it’s unlikely to see states coming in and out or being combined so they are, as far as anyone else needs to care, one unit. Nobody switched to “is” because of some idea of unity, it’s just because they don’t act separately on a federal level. Anyone with a braincell to spare knows that cooperation is a stranger to the States.
It’s a shitty “oldest fedration” that, frankly, as a Canadian I only know a lot about because every little piece of garbage it pumps out has a very nearly direct impact on my life in the form of a dogshit conservative culture that our own conservatives reproduce. I wish I could ignore that place, or maybe even enjoy its diversity of less toxic cultures and landscapes, but as it is I just hate the place and my familiarity with it is on a “know your enemy” basis. I could not give two flying shits about some white-washed “oldest federation” bullshit and am frankly insulted that even a small fraction of a part of you believes that I should care(the rest of you is fine though, I’m sure you didn’t mean it that way).
That rant got way out of hand, sorry, but I’m leaving it.
🥱
It is essentially internet censorship.

Turns out it’s just porn.
Oooh you’ve been caught with a secret link! I went to select those emojis and YouTube opened lol
Only a secret for some I guess.
Which client/webinterface is this? Asking for a friend…
Sync for Lemmy
Thanks. Does it just show the preview picture or also let you see the video in the app?
Voyager also does this, should you care to check it out :)
Open source and free, I believe sync costs money, which is fair enough. Up to you!
I’ll check that one out :)
Keep Your Parents Off the Internet. Aged very well…

Not sure why but I can’t play this one for some reason.
Also, parents back then: “Don’t believe everything that’s on the internetz!” Parents now: “Did you know that ‘insert wild conspiracy bullshit’?!”
Now go find which members of Congress bought a bunch of VPN stock before these bans went into effect.
Nice cover story for people living in fear of Musk’s Presidency
…doesn’t proton claim they don’t analyse user data?
To do this graph you don’t have to have any user specific data. Just total amount of new accounts every day per country.
Yeah, but the “it’s just porn, lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯” conclusion?
Is this not them admitting they know your search history to a categorical sense? L data mining
They banned porn in the southern states of the US this week.
It’s only logical it’ll go up in search trend when something is banned but regardless it doesn’t change the fact they can and will use your data to make profile to sell. Idk why people upset and downvoting like I said something grotesque
Not really? All the data they said was US residents. That’s information readily available to any site you visit, any service you use, and anyone who looks at you.
