The owner of lobste.rs decided to censor lobste.rs. And then changed his mind. It's accessible from the UK as it was before.

I see. I only came to know it from the list. Now what about the rest of the list.

    It is nice of you to do community bond building by being jocular, tgv, but I do not see context nor content. I do not see context because this is the beginning of "present an ID to access the web", and I do believe in slippery slopes, especially in a world where societies have lost the basics. And I do not see content because I am not sure you want to suggest anything relevant with that. For the rest, we can joke whenever we are both here fondly mate, but you have probably picked the worst topic for it. -- Edit: > where societies have lost the basics And that's why I feel your use of "nerd" is so out of current reality (besides its application to the attending). A world of voluntary subjects, and the term for the sieged would be "nerd"?!

      I copied that entry from https://www.blocked.org.uk/osa-blocks https://www.blocked.org.uk/osa-blocks. It's clear this site hasn't been blocked. "The rest of that list" is not relevant. Most of it seems trolling, to give somebody a headache, I presume.

        > "The rest of that list" is not relevant Last time I checked it (here I barely have any Internet connection) it contained complaints from people unable to straightly conduct their usual web activities, of a sensitivity nature above Peppa Pig. Hysterics? Possibly. But the first steps that could lead to the worse are taken. I have little trust in the profiles I see to have faith the future steerings. > Is this you? If you were suggesting that I could be behind childish acts, in the proper societies I lament are going missing you were supposed to apologize. My age is private, not low.
