> the nofly csv is almost 80mb in size and contains over 1.56 million rows of data. this HAS to be the real deal (we later get confirmation that it is indeed a copy of the nofly list from 2019).
CSV you say? Let's hope Bobby Droptable's cousin Bobby Double Quote Comma-Semicolon don't get in it...
[flagged]
I love the implication that this random person should be the authority on whether or not I can see the no-fly list.
This guy is a (hobbyist?) security researcher who responsibly alerts companies of vulnerabilities. However are his actions of downloading the no fly list and offering to share with journalists legal? Or does that cross into overreach and criminal activity?
it isn't a guy and it uses it/its pronouns.

At least it got flagged! But since I can't reply to it and put some effort into typing a reply, I hope you don't mind me dropping it below. --- What? I agree that for my tastes a lot of people take gender very seriously. But it seems wild to me to think this is somehow a new phenomenon. For millennia in many societies one's society-assigned gender determined a great deal about one's status, including what work you co…
Have a nice day.

>At least it got flagged!
Ah yes, censorship is good when it is an opinion you do not share, right? That I was flagged is wrong on the part of hacker news, and whoever got that ball rolling.
>All moral codes have a "coercive" element to them
Coercion is good too. Are you sure you're not the baddie here? Are you really sure?
>as a thoroughgoing nerd, I spent a lot of my childhood getting shit on for being different, so I'm happy to help make space for different kinds of difference.
Another popular strawman. I stated explicitly "live how you want" and yet you assert that I'm against difference or outcasts. You lied.
>trans folks have a pretty hard role in life
I'm speaking specifically of custom pronouns. If you cut off your junk and wear a dress, I think its rude not to call you "she". It is a shitty kind of idea that encourages people to introduce new error modes into their relationships, and the bitter irony is you think you're doing people a favor by doing that.

Am I missing something? It seems Maia didn't share the data at all, and only offers to if someone can demonstrate they will use it responsibly. Moreover, depending on the contents of the list, this likely offers proof of what is generally suspected, that the no fly list is a form of discrimination and authoritarian overreach, targeting people that haven't been convicted of a crime but are "suspected" due to race, rel…
> Maia didn't share the data at all You literally immediately falsified that assertion: > and only offers to if someone can demonstrate they will use it responsibly. And nobody ever lies of course.

Going back to your original post: >Anyone who doesn't have the capacity to accept being called any pronoun has a mental health problem. By this metric the vast majority of humanity has a mental health problem, and you're an exception. Most cis, het men do not like to be called she or a girl.
Relatively off-topic, but I absolutely love the 90s/early 2000s vibes I get from this. I can't remember the last time I saw a webring, much less one with animated logos.
Made me realize that 'vintage' basically means to many people 'things that are before my living memory' and it can literally only be 0 to 5 years back before they were born.

Yeah cause we should totally have a top secret no fly list
Maybe we should or shouldn't, but the potential victims of this aren't just some greedy corporation. Leaking the no fly list could cause irreparable harm to individuals whose names are on it or even similar, causing discrimination by employers and other organizations.

1.5 million rows you say? Better hope nobody opens it in Excel and overwrites it…
