Claiming Stepan Bandera was killed for being an "Anti-Soviet activist" is on par with saying "In 1945, German animal rights activist committed suicide after a long campaign of pers…

"Sex traffickers are using the human powers of speech and locomotion to aid in the coercion of their victims"

Lobsters blocking UK users because it's a highly reactive hugbox*

I hope this is poorly phrased or I am misunderstanding it, because it feels like it's implying that Matrix's terrible scaling issues will have their fixes paywalled. Even non-feder…

Mac baby discovers you can use Whois info for details on who owns a site. More at ten.

It's not an attempt to try, it's reputation management. There is no 'anonymization' of data, because the advertising companies Mozilla is selling your data to now have almost 20 ye…

Sadly, not All-American anymore. The US police force doesn't exist in a vacuum. There is a whole industry of pseudoscientific interrogation techniques that has set itself up in oth…

Copyright was invented by a cartel of noblemen, the British Stationer's Company, who, due to liberal reform, were going to lose their publishing monopoly. The implementation of cop…

Trademark isn't copyright, so no.

There's nothing heroic about supporting a government that institutionalized pedophilia (Bacha Bazi), ran entirely on corruption, and passively accepted the sale of opium out of kic…

Manning leaked multiple files relating to the execution of surrendering fighters and murder of civilians. "Collateral Murder" being the big one.

I hate to break this to you, but Trump was and is a participant in liberal democracy, not a March on Rome figure.

Australia is on an America-led course to humiliate and destroy whistleblowers. Our governments were upset in public, but no doubt cheering on Assange's treatment in private. Just l…

DXM is absolutely more mind altering than caffeine. What do you mean?

RARBG was taken down by its owner's incompetence. He was paying several hundred dollars a month for bandwidth that costs tens elsewhere.

I hate to break it to you, but yeah. There are, sadly, many countries in the world that rely on petty and punitive action on harmless things online in order to frighten would-be "t…

'Slop' has been used to describe low quality, mass produced web content for at least five years. Media is behind the curve, as usual.

While what is described here is a legitimate political movement, it's important to remember most 'militias' in these contexts are very often funded by, part of, or become rival cri…

SQLite is nice and simple, but I don't think I'd ever use it for a larger project I knew was going to have a sizable database.

Modern AAA games are meant to be disposable, with a killswitch for when the next consumable is released. This isn't possible with community servers. They don't want longevity. Chea…

Misinformation has been the backbone of campaigning and lobbying for generations. It's suddenly a threat, because the people performing it are afraid YOU may be able to, also.

Every other VPN on the planet seems to have no such issue. This is very odd.

"Regulatory capturists drum up support for regulatory capture"

Section 230 prevents small hosts from going to jail because somebody illicitly used their site for pirate uploads or illegal speech. Don't be naive. No section 230 means no 'small …

You can make any part of the Pyramids with primitive hand tools. In fact, material scientists have, to prove a point. Quartz is harder than the stone used for them, and diorite can…
