International UK Government wins court case to block its population from accessing Wikipedia

[fingercuffs]

Talk about getting your Dierdre knickers in a twist, @Croo67 "ooh you mark my words!!", you curtain twitching crotchety old woman.

How about actually providing evidence, rather than just applying the 'that would never happen' logic?

Here's The Guardian, the cheerleaders of Labour and general cesspit of wokery, decrying the Online Safety Act.

The UK's Online Safety Act is a licence for censorship – and the rest of the world is following suit | Taylor Lorenz

From the US and Australia to France and Italy, those seeking to obliterate privacy and restrict content are on the move, says technology journalist Taylor Lorenz

Shit you are right.

Wikipedia is now impossible to access from the UK.

Left wing, woke brigade have done it again.

It's literally the equivalent of Nazi/Communist book burning.

Meanwhile decent white folk can't walk down the street without being stabbed by blacks or raped by Asians.

Duh duh, no way could that happen so it can't happen.

Imagine going through life with such a logic.

Im slowly starting to think "death of internet" theory might come true

Wikipedia is widely used by HS, colleges and unis students and will be used ....anyway.

However main pros are that everyone might edit articles in general, until mods will read this etc. Ppl sometimes are posting plain bullshit.

While value isn't article content, core is reference sources and links etc.... if these are valid, then... different outcome.

Also ofc students might learn to collect and check info about article from multiple sources credibility and so on in order to prepare for academic resesrch etc.


Country proved that they after Brexit even does have more crime problems and more legal and illegal immigrants, increased inflation in all areas ....and more problems for gratudates from trade schools, colleges and unis to get job...failed to reduce violent crimes cases and social budget expenses....now will threat everything with wikipedia cenzorship attempts?

Despite unfortunately they are worse than Leningrad in 1993 th hole.

Yes, it was hole but no one who didn't even knew who you are had stabbed you from behind in suppermarket ....actually just for fun.
Even degenerates and criminals didn't had driven cars in crowd just cos fun.

Next step might be researchgate etc ?
I don't think that U.K is bad country or Sweden for example. Whilw sometimes looks that " worse " countries might be safer to live in.
Lesser risk to die cos someone who doesn't knows who you are might kill you for fun.

Bad tendencies.

Guess it wasn't all that successful.

Guess it wasn't all that successful.

They’re blocking content as and when they see fit, rather than a blanket ban.

It doesn’t seem all that consistent at the moment.

Here’s some examples of how the UK Gov is going about it:

 

[ShadowRun]

If you listen to the media for your information you would think America is one big school shooting.

It's a bit shit here, but that's broadly economic. I've not been stabbed or harassed by migrants nor do I know anyone how has been.

I get a lot of bbc news being overseas for work and talk about bias with a lot of misinformation.

 

[Siver!]

So the actual story minus the Deirdre'ing alarmist is that OFCOM would have to place Wiki in Category 1 with a bunch of porn sites and whatever else (Reddit apparently), but that decision has NOT been made by OFCOM yet, nor is it a choice they will necessarily make.

If they do, there will likely be more legal challenges and the government would ultimately have to defend its policy.

There's a long way to go in this, but it is at least interesting to see where it goes from here.

I'll keep my powder dry for now.

There is a huge propaganda effort, the news tells you nothing of what it's like to live in a county.

Wikipedia is used a lot sure, but now mainly by AI. It's a CIA/Mossad propaganda platform or at least heavily captured.

I'm sorry, did you actually research?

You're meant to read the misleading headline only, then get angry about it and turn it into a tired tirade on "the left".

@Croo67 is trying to inform us of the greatest political threat since the German National Socialists here! He's definitely not posting sensationalist headlines, with no substance, in a tired attempt to provoke.

 

[Lycandroid]

The UK government is as left as Benjamin Netanyahu. Please.

I think I see where this is going.

Well, I think in this instance I could be considered a 'leftist' by someone espousing your world view, although I think that characterisation does nothing to reveal any truth but just propagates our various rulers propaganda.

There is a great deal of upset regarding it but broadly speaking the British seem to be a little beleaguered at the moment. Life is hard and the problems seems intractable. The next general election is a way off. All main parties have been sabotaged and bought so many times over it seems hopeless.

This is obviously authoritarian and we had for example the greatest arrests under anti terror legislation last Saturday, over 500 people, for peaceful support of the prescribed Palestine Action Group. Arrests of disabled people, teachers, nurses etc, sitting down, well meaning entirely peaceful. Such is possibly the closest we have come to real middle English upset in decades and it's terrifying the state.

I think if you believe there is silence on the matter you are indeed within an echo chamber. Nearly 1 million people signed up to Jeremy Corbyns Your Party within a couple of weeks and this dwarfs the support of all other political parties combined.

Regarding your comments re Pakistani rape gangs, that's a contentious issue. Statistically speaking it's a small issue, a fraction of the sexual assault on children numbers which are vastly commited by family and friends of the victim.

Now there is a concerted effort by Zionists to increase numbers of Muslim migrants into Christian countries, they manipulate all sides and magnify division. They want us to fight each other. People like Starmer, Farage, Yaxley-Lennon, Badenoch and yourself are all in their pockets either fiscally or ideologically.

So multiple things are true, yes these crimes are awful, yes there's a problem, yes we should treat asylum seekers with care, yes we should prevent unauthorized migration, yes we should protect children from harmful content, yes the UK's laws are becoming increasingly authoritarian etc etc.

I remember when blaming everything on the Jews was a right wing position. All it took was two years of media manipulation and now the left joins in without a second thought so much so that antisemitism is normalized.

The value of articles in wiki isn't content.
It is sources used to create article and provided as additional points.

Article might be personal author work, while article value is sources author had used and provided them.

Like for students works etc.
So if this is valuable, then author does have reference points about these.

Even in HS it is taught ....how to prepare courseworks etc too.

Ofc xxxxx entitites does want to change public opinion and we too might change article in wiki, while....
Maybe gubbermint will be allowed to impact scientific articles and Q/A about programming etc? Too?

OK, i agree that SO for example is low value source, even worse than wiki, mainly based on idiotic mods mindset. Still not all is bad.

I guess leaving a decade ago isn’t looking so bad. The regression is serious. This government are creating a world of misery and really stirring the pot.

Will be interesting to see how this unfolds. The UK currently is a mess.

Idk man, things have always sorta looped around at the extremes, national socialists and all.

There's a reason Jeremy Corbyn was labeled an anti semite and it's because he represents the only realistic actually left political movement in the UK in living memory. The actual left have never been a fan of Israel.

 

[ermac88]

It's crazy what's happening in the UK. It shows how important it is for America to reject liberalism, migrants, and gun control. No matter how bad conservatives can be, it's preferable to that authoritarian shit show.

"authoritarian shit show."

i think your response indicates exactly how far the political control of the narrative in the USA shapes your opinion, because what you describe as liberalism is in fact better described as iliberalism.

It verges on authoritarianism and is on the foothills of fascism.

Modern Western liberalism is fascist and authoritarian. That's the core of its ideology: brutal subjugation under the guise of security and equality.
