Barely anyone is going to see this, but if you’ve ever asked why X isn’t banned in the UK yet despite creating CSAM, it’s because the US government has enforced a worldwide policy of blackmail protecting the American tech oligarchy. It’s why TikTok can be banned but X cannot.
“Why can’t we have any regulations for US tech in Britain?”
Because the US trade rep has gone to every country including Britain and said if we regulate tech in a way that favours our people, industries and national interests, the US will bury us in tariffs and ruin our economy.

But it's about making the internet safe for the kids right?
I am once again reminding you all that the UK government introduced an Online Safety Act that is effectively a porn ban on most adult porn websites, but is dithering over banning a website that is actually creating child porn.

I literally watched the Evri guy sit in his truck across the road and take a photo of my door and then send me an email saying I was not in. I was literally in the photo. And so many companies insist on using these shitty delivery companies instead of just using the post office
I will never understand how delivery companies exist in this country. I have lived in the same place for 5 years and royal mail has never missed a delivery but UPS, Evri and DPD regularly need 2 or 3 tries to deliver anything.

that's ok. i can spell and they shouldn't have been tracking my packages anyway.
“The trade-off is that turning off the Gemini AI features will also turn off some of Gmail's other embedded legacy features, including autocorrect, spell check, desktop notifications, and package tracking.”
Gmail's new Gemini AI features can be turned off, but there's a catch
The email app used by over 3 billion people is turning on new artificial intelligence features by default. Here's how to turn them off.

i've lived in both kinds of places but i have always been black first
Black in this country.
I saw a great comment with a man from a majority Black country who said he is Gay first because of how society in his country treats him.
Makes one think about how no experience is monolithic.

Saw this great question on Reddit,
Question: Which comes first?
For the fellas, do you see yourself more as a Black gay man or more as a gay Black man?
