  • What changed between the ‘months of torture’ and Naruto and Safine being arrested, and the '10 days ’ leading up to his death?

    It sounds sick that the French government would decide a man is being tortured yet they’re not obligated to intervene… while at the same time they fine a company for not stepping in.

    If this man was negligently killed, authorities and kick are to blame, but it’s the authorities that should’ve been the failsafe, not the company. I guess it makes sense that French politicians are Very Mad™ and Seriously Considering Bigger Punishments™.



  • I got too far in the article to not hear about people possibly mass reporting the pic. I don’t want to hear people on social media and how they think it’s censorship, zuck sucking trump, whatever.

    Oh fuck, I read the entire thing and it never even mentions it. Maybe I need to finish my coffee but it seems like kids just don’t realize you can abuse automated systems, or if you can, that it’s not automatically a deliberate attempt to censor their ideas. It’s too hard to imagine with “but it’s meta! Zuck bent the knee!” screaming in your mind’s ear.



  • I think there’s not much Nazi gamer shit out there because it’s incredibly rare for any to slip into my recommendations.

    But if I let YouTube go it would probably take me from normal people like anyaustin to hype people like xQc. And then from there all the popular people can show up, including asmonmold. And people like him are legit brain rot.

    Edit: for overwhelming Nazi content in your feed, try gun YouTubers. I binged gun Jesus and nothing. Watched Brandon Herrera (spelling?) build aks and look at cursed weapon memes and somehow that means I’m a flaming Trumper.







  • So is this a way to take away rights by making it about kids?

    I mean what the fuck. We did much less and got punished right? It didn’t matter if we were on the property. Schools can hold students accountable for conduct with other students.

    The leaded-gas adults of the time had no problem dealing with the emergence of cell phones. It was a distraction. They didn’t need lawmakers to call it something specific. My Pokemon cards caused fights and were banned. No lawmakers needed.

    The problem is surely with the interaction between parents and schools. Or maybe it’s just the old way of thinking. Maybe it’s better to have police and courts start taking over discipline in schools.



  • Look, there’s people who host videos that we must watch at any cost. But not really any cost, because we don’t feel we should pay, or watch ads… or anything, really. But we deserve to watch these videos. It’s our right. We’re entitled damn it!

    So we’re going to barge into this place and watch videos while blocking ads. We’re going to use tools to watch through the windows. We’re going to smuggle content out of the building.

    Because we need these videos. We’ll modify our browsers, install new apps, change our habits, fight pointless fights, get accounts terminated…

    But we’re not going to pay a dime. It’s not like Youtube means anything to us. Gross! We’d just leave if there was no choice. We’d just go to… somewhere else. These guys don’t have a hold on us.


  • If I thought that way about YouTube, why not just be a sovcit about laws in general? I don’t want to cherry pick philosophy. Let’s go all in on technicalities and loopholes and definitions and wording. Life is a video game where X leads to Y because that’s the rules. YouTube is merely answering requests, and I’m merely watching a curated selection of data. They have a TOS but I never agreed to it. For I’m not a user or customer, but a Netizen, and we have rights.


  • But I don’t have adblockers installed and I still get told to turn my blocker off. I have no extensions and YouTube randomly stops my video to tell me I’m doing it wrong.

    Edit: I guess this is the result when dealing with the kind of users who refuse to watch ads, but also can’t fuck off like decent human beings. Just millions of people who will climb your fence, pick your locks, smash your window, because they deserve to watch content, but they won’t pay or watch ads.
