This guy doesn’t know about stackies

Thank you for validating my scifi reference. I feel seen.

It’s a reference to a book. But essentially yes you would manipulate the curvature of the universe to put something similar to a black hole around the solar system so that nothing could escape. A Black Domain, or a Light Tomb.

Our solar system would have a greatly reduced speed of light so as to avoid being attacked by other sentient life.

Usually I avoid internet arguments, these arguments were so bad though that I couldn’t resist

I cannot stress this enough. The EU isn’t trying to keep people from going to the site. They’re just saying if the people running the site Elon Musk knowingly use it to spread false information they will be legally liable.

I can’t help replying to this.

Depends on how you build the site, my dude. You can easily code it to block everyone and then putting in exceptions takes extra effort.

How many more rakes do you want to step on?

Your comment is too far down this list

The internet is indeed international, and also very much subject to territorial law. This is not new.

If you bother to read the article or the letter, no one is trying to keep people from accessing the site. They want X as a site to stop actively and knowingly pushing false information.

Imperialism is bad, so we have common ground there. However, not really relevant here.

Sincerely, have a good one and take care of yourself.

I really don’t understand your point at all. The EU sent them a letter pointing out that they have new laws and will be enforcing them. It’s on X to follow those laws, not follow them and pay the consequences, or geofence their service.

If Europeans want to go the site they will if its blocked or not, if it’s geofenced or not. VPNs exist. The point isn’t blocking X or preventing people from reaching it. It’s serving notice that they will be subject to the law

And it’s not like there’s one big ISP run by the EU where they can flip a switch to block X. They’d have to force each ISP to do it.

Ok… but your analogy doesn’t make any sense in this context. X isn’t eating lunch next to the EU. They’re selling sandwiches over the internet in the EU. The EU sent a letter pointing out that his sandwiches in the past have contained shit and we now have laws in place regarding shit filled sandwiches, so do not sell sandwiches that contain shit within our borders or we will pursue legal action against you.

Also, quit your bullshit. If the EU just blocked it outright there’d be a huge outcry about them censoring free speech.

I mean, pornhub pulled access to their website from my state and others because of state laws. Surely it couldn’t be that hard for X

Does a Gacha count as gambling? I’m still missing some ZZZ Agents and some Nikkes

I’ve never moderated anything, but based on this post you sound unpleasant to deal with.

He’s absolutely free to say that. The advertisers are also absolutely free to decide they don’t want to do business with him anymore. That’s not censorship, it’s the market and freedom of association.
