Bluesky suspending antifascist researchers for sharing publicly available information about literal nazis.
Should be no surprise considering bsky constantly protects nazis, the far right, and all flavors of bigotry at the expense of Palestinians and trans women.
Fortunately, their information already spread so far and wide that at least half of the Blood Tribe nazis lost their jobs following the mass doxx. Chris Pohlhaus, leader of BT, estimated financial losses at over $2 million lol. Happy holidays!
shouldn’t really surprise anyone. Didn’t their CEO like several months ago pretty much defend a known fascist/tranphob on the platform and essentially told people who complained about it to “not post” out of protest? Also Bluesky is extremely quick to bend to the whims of whatever government body makes demands. They were one of the first sites to quickly implement age verification in the UK I believe.

LOL what did you expect them to do, exactly? They can either comply with the law or be fined to death. Those are their choices.
This is lemmy, the expectation is you are so out of touch with reality you think a US-hosted service won’t get fucked over in a heartbeat by the US government.
Well, I expected them to capitulate while shuddering and moaning and begging for more, because that’s what they love, but I would expect a not-shit company to not lead the pack at the very least.
bottom line: compliance to fascism before it’s forced you to comply is how fascism goes from visible in the public sphere to all consuming slaughter machine. the best way to resist fascism is early and often. make them work for it. especially when the current iteration is fundamentally composed of lazy losers

What difference does that make?
You’re right, there’s no harm to complying in advance. Let’s do it!
There literally isn’t.
complying in advance is incredibly dangerous
How so?

I’m gonna state a new law, it needs you to rip one of your nails off and send it for age verification so you better start ripping it off
Huh?
