Except when more than just culture is at stake.

The ban itself is not the legal issue, it's just an extension of it.

Trust me when I say that, ever since Trump got elected, the insane has very much become possible.

This is awful mod behaviour... in c/[email protected]

That's not the same person. Notice how the order of the community bans don't match up. Joey just wanted to sound like a hero again.

If you had any doxxing power, you wouldn't be saying that.

I guess it could functionally be an instance ban if literally every single comm moderator got together and banned a user from every single comm on an instance…

It's more like a federation glitch. The modlogs don't always represent a situation correctly. Hence what you said after that. On my end, it appears as multiple communities. So I stand corrected.

Oh. I read those all as different people. My bad.

Heads up, the new OpenChristian community in lemmy.ca doesn't appear for many of us. I think you may have hired a mod who is banned in some of our instances. (lemmy.wtf)

They're still going to try. Russia already has, and they're the home of Marxism-Leninism.

"Anti-AI troll" appears in more than just those two. That's shorthand for being concerned with copyright.

It's 100% possible to block a website in one country that comes from another country. It doesn't affect the website in its own country, but it still prevents the website from being usable in the country that blocked it.

In the past, I too may have said he's probably not aware of the fediverse, but then a fediverse mod blew up a fertility clinic a few weeks ago. That at least puts us all on the far edges of the NSA's radar. Even Kiwi Farms has never produced any mass saboteurs.

The artist doesn't need to be an artist-for-profit for it to apply. They just need to be someone who can say they spent all day on an art piece. The incentive for that goes away when it amounts to something that other people can enjoy without any boundaries.

It's there in the fine print.

Advocating piracy is one thing, but now banning people for believing in copyright? That's like banning people for following the law. That is banning people for following the law. What gives? And to think a while ago I declared I wouldn't have any reason to not take their bans (or the motives behind them) seriously.

Are we trying to get world governments to ban Lemmy (or, worse, the fediverse)? Love the administrative decisions or hate them, such decisions will drag down the whole fediverse. Typically sites are defederated to protect the sites defederating them from liability. Will this be an example, or does this, out of convenience, not apply? Are we forgetting a large portion of the fediverse's demographics consist of artists trying to make a damn living?

Someone finally decided to sue the fediverse via karmacourt, and it's no surprise who it is (www.reddit.com)

And it seems karmacourt will be the first to posit that the fediverse is worth "putting in its place", going by the upvotes in such an empty community that probably discourages those kinds of suits.
