The answer is never censorship. Look at who would be in charge of your ‘regulated’ social media now… It would be all of it instead of just the now hyper-regulated X.
I’m just this guy. You know?

Has everyone forgotten about Guantanamo? There are probably people there still who just got caught up in “911” sweeps for all we know. Even if they say they’ve moved or transferred all of them.
Well, I’m not sure how I feel about preemptively burning your own books, willingly diving back into the stone age for no good reason. Most of the fears outlined in the article are pure speculation and over-reaction to current events. If data from 23 and Me (the source of most of this data being burned) is really getting out there to be purchased, this hiding of data and data destruction does not even inconvenience bad state actors, it only puts up a big bad-actor sourced pay wall in front of legitimate scientists. This is really a shameful cowardice at best, anti-science either way, and at worst they may be actually selling the data to someone and then deleting the public database behind a big flourish with smoke and mirrors. (Reading back my post to myself I guess I am sure how I feel about preemptively burning your own books. It makes me mad apparently. )

There is a place for Capitalism. Prisons, Hospitals, Insurance, police and mental health facilities, to name a few, are not the place.
Inconsistent toll by tag enforcement probably isn’t helping. In Orlando I had a bill from one agency and and account with another. If it reads my electronic tag it pays from the one account, but if it mis-reads it charges by tag in another agency… I nearly got a ticket despite making sure my main account was paid off. The confusion could have toll notices from an unfamiliar source seem valid.

This is why the death penalty or even prison sentences longer than a decade should be eliminated…
He should have been doing it the whole time. He was just looking for exit kudos. Which is better than nothing I guess.

Social media isn’t a news source. Perhaps forcing them to remove all the ‘algorithms’ might be the answer. Keep the echo chamber effect to a minimum. Excluding people from being able to speak based on the current administration’s definition of blatantly fake disinformation is a bad idea. Once again, look who is now in charge of what is ‘blatantly fake’… They’d be suing the crap out of Lemmy under that law… Europe is all in on censorship, so we can only hope the Nazis don’t take over there again or we’ll be boxed in from every direction.
