If you can’t see someone’s posts then they’re blocked for all that matters. Anyone wanting more than that is being too precious.
Serial shitcunt mod jordanlund from Lemmy.world banned me from multiple communities I’ve never even so much as visited when he banned me for something that didn’t even break any rules.
Too late - it began as that.
That’s actually much better than what they’re currently doing. If all you had to do was verify with your phone that you are >16 it would mean that each social media app and then every other site that the government demands do age verification doesn’t need to verify you. It means you only verify once, on your device.
Unfortunately that’s why they’ll never do it - the government wants to ram through a universal government digital ID, and they do it by making laws that make it increasingly hard for all the companies to meet the criteria, so the government can then swoop in and give their “solution”.
While I agree with the point you’re making, abortions are very rarely “life saving surgery”.
100% pro abortion here (to a limit of course) before people go off, let’s just not distort the truth as all it does is hurt our point.
How is blocking them on “moral grounds” even allowed in the first place when abortion is legal?
Technically impossible? Not at all. VPN companies have exit nodes with IP addresses. Those IP addresses are regularly banned by services like Netflix already.
Why do you think nobody does it anymore? Because no one cared about it or used it.
The government: “That’s the point”
That’s terrible lol. Where are peoples cars supposed to go?
That's driven up the price of gas and, by extension, sent electricity prices into orbit.
Oh no, they’re not really going to try to ….
Some of that has been caused by the extra costs associated with rolling out transmission lines for new renewable power plants.
….oh they did lol. “Some of that” 🤣
“Renewables” are the cause for the power bill increases, not gas.
So if you can’t tell, why does it matter? People that do that do it for the attention you give them. If you’re not giving them any attention because they’re blocked, they go away.
