Millions of UK voices, websites & rights orgs, are abjectly concerned by Ofcom’s advice that “platforms can avoid worrying about their duties under the Online Safety Act (OSA) if they ensure they are more (!!)censorious than the act requires”.
Thank GOD 4 the 1998 Human Rights Act (Article 10).

It's Day 1433 of Russia breaking all known laws and rules of combat, Geneva Conventions, morality and its own economy.

It's also called the illegal invasion of Ukraine.

Here's Monday's daily thread - and it's not been a bad start to the week for Ukraine.

This is Kupiansk today. Once a thriving town of 25,000 in Kharkiv region, now nothing but ruins and ash.

Russia obliterated it. Murdered or drove out its people, and bombed it into dust.

This is a mob shakedown note disguised as a legal document from Pam Bondi.

Two plausible but equally alarming explanations for demanding voter records: they intend to tamper with the 2026 midterm elections, and this is a tool, or they want a list of Kamala Harris voters for intimidation purposes.

Welcome to a new daily Ukraine thread, documenting the country's fight against Russian tyranny.

Day 1432 is Burns' Night, so it seems apt to begin with a quote from the Scottish Bard:

“Man's inhumanity to man makes countless thousands mourn.”

So called 'peace' talks are a divertion. Like Greenland is, Venezuela is - that's my opinion and I am not alone in this. The interest of people in US is dimishing for these files: and that's exactly what Krasnov wants to achieve.
