@seb Unfortunately, it's probably cheaper just to avoid web hosting companies in the first place.

@seb It is, in part, an issue of how the internet works in and of itself. It's annoying to blame "muh capitalism" for everything, but the decisions that lead to these issues are almost universally caused by a profit-first mentality. Rarely it might be negligence or an oversight, but I've seen more of the former than the latter. This kind of stuff does not happen as often in areas where profit-first is NOT the dominant mentality, like certain kinds of military products, intelligence products or critical infrastructures.Moving over to a hosting cooperative would probably be a good start.

How the fuck does our underfunded military still manage to provide better pay for reservists than most private corporations can for their part time staff. Absolutely insane.

@catgirl It doesn't matter at all. The decisions to censor Rogan's podcasts weren't made on any basis of "truthiness" but rather on the fact that spotify thought they might lose money by hosting them.

@jeffcliff Inflating the price of gold is really annoying if you want to use gold for something other than a currency or status symbol.

@velartrill One of the major points that makes criticism of Islam a taboo in some circles is that it is too often a dogwhistle for "I hate brown people." The examples in the book are representative of any fundamentalist, dogmatic ideology. It was most definitely rationalized under Christianity, it has been rationalized under Hinduism. Stalinism justified it. Nazism justified it, and so on.Some bleeding hearts refuse to address any dangers. However, Canada has had a pretty decent track record in terms of managing to peacefully and quickly (3 generations or less) integrating the refugee population.There are many ex-muslims who feel like the "woke" liberals have abandoned them. They are probably correct. It can be quite dangerous for apostates, even in "the West."

@MusiqueNow My biggest problem was that my managers were horrible communicators and refused any kind of negotiation. I never knew when I was walking on eggshells.

@bookandswordblog Canada is pretty permissive, but there are some issues around advertisement of the sale of sex.

@bookandswordblog Honestly, there are plenty of examples of hosts that support sex-workers. Several folks I know have all of their advertisment hosted within the borders (illegal, but left alone). If they feel threatened in *all jurisdictions* then I do have legitimate concerns about their moderation and would not recommend they continue anyway...

@jeffcliff Until crypto stabilizes (stablecoins miss the point tbqh) I don't see its value as a currency :(It would be nice to be able to do mutual aid through crypto because it is free from the BS of paypal and other annoying services, but as it stands its not trivial to convert back and forth.

@jeffcliff To be fair, cash is still cash, and drug dealers often have lots of it.

@bookandswordblog They literally misused the technology. Fedi is decentralized for a reason. Either way, it doesn't matter now because they decided to just toss the whole thing without asking anyone.

@stux I just figure their eyesight is going. Low self esteem probably doesn't help 😛
