  1. Can you blame him? She's not that shabby looking especially when she was younger. Drop the fake man act ie talk in her real voice (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9lp73GNqxE 55 second mark) get some makeup on and ditch the steve jobs outfit and make me forget she's a psychopath and she's quite conventionally attractive.

  2. I like how an article about Chinese Databases on Massive Database Leak Exposes China's 'Digital Surveillance State' (eff.org) · · Score: 1

    or the n word all day long nobody's forcing you to stay in the job. Get a gig at Wendy's or something. Sounds like somebody's shielding their job from possible competition. Or even more likely, they're buttering up the public for the need for massive automated censorship.

  5. Cyberstalking? Sounds like an oxymoron on Judge Says Washington State Cyberstalking Law Violates Free Speech (engadget.com) · · Score: -1, Troll

    How is interacting with ones and zeros on a screen someone else a hundred miles away voluntarily posted stalking them in any meaningful sense? I guess directly sending threats back at them is bad but I don't think I'd use the word 'stalk' for that. Sounds like an oxymoron everybody just accepts to make something sound worse than it usually is like giant ant or honest lawyer.

    You're 'free' to leave. They'll just do everything in their power to sabotage and punish you for doing so. See Brexit.

    Youtube is an effective monopoly that owes its existence to massive government subsidies and is hard to recreate the value add of eyeballs and infrastructure that it enjoys in a competitor. Plus Proggies never accept these kinds of pro business choice arguments when their fat is on the fire in much more reasonable cases ie hijabs in the workplace, wedding photos, cakes. Its very easy to visit another wedding cake shop, setting up a viable career as a content creator at another YT. Not so much. Also when people do try to create competitors Proggies do everything they can to sabotage it (see Gab et al), all the while screaming 'start your own competitor so you can do what you want!'

    Too many people are leaping to top down authoritarianism as the first solution to more and more things. I don't want to solve my own problems, make daddy Youtube/police/government solve it for me. Someday we may find Skynet hanging over us monitoring and controlling everything we do and we'll wonder how we got here.

  10. Re: Think of the Children Hysteria on YouTube Videos Could Get Demonetized If They Have 'Inappropriate Comments' · · Score: 1

    Google encourages people to see them as a content cop. They know they could stand their ground and the few protesting advertisers would need them more than they needed the advertisers. But Google while it doesn't like the scandal itself in the end agrees with assuming more and more control.

  11. Think of the Children Hysteria on YouTube Videos Could Get Demonetized If They Have 'Inappropriate Comments' · · Score: 1

    An attentionwhore suddenly decides that ordinary videos of children dancing or in swimwear uploaded by the families or kids themselves is 'softcore child porn' in his own words, (softcore CP that he plays back in the very video that went viral and he's made tons of thumbnails that have been seen by millions) and now the livelihood of content creators across the internet are at risk, regular people will no longer be able to upload videos, and tons of people are generally going to be inconvenienced. All because 'think of the children' hysteria is so powerful nowadays everybody is too terrified to stand up against it and for common sense.

  12. Whats the added value over twitch? on Google Is Expected To Reveal Game Streaming Service At GDC In March (extremetech.com) · · Score: 0

    Whats so special about a 'new' game streaming service run by woke megacorp A vs the 'old' game streaming service run by woke megacorp B? Saying in your opinion there are only two genders gets you permanently banned in 3.4 seconds instead of 3.7 seconds?

  13. Scrolling through the video it looks like this 'softcore child porn' is mostly videos often recorded by the girls themselves dancing and or wearing swimsuits. So basically every parent who has recorded beach day and anyone who has walked down a beach and looked at people is now to be considered a child molester. This is where we're at as a society today and everybody is too terrified to speak out against this.

  14. Google should not be a Cop on Disney, Nestle, and Others Are Pulling YouTube Ads Following Child Exploitation Controversy (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Sad how things ratchet to authoritarianism. People should stop banging on Youtube/Google/etc to take down everything they don't like and then act surprised when they start censoring and deplatforming based on political viewpoints. Google/etc is not and should not play cop. If the law has a problem it should handle it with Google on as narrow as possible case by case basis. But Google/MS/etc are not completely blameless. They seem to enjoy playing cop themselves a little too much and have set themselves up as such rather than emphasizing they're just the messenger. So they should not be surprised at the backlash. Having said that if your mind automatically goes to the threat of pedophilia at the sight of a girl dancing or wearing a bathing suit, maybe that says more about you.

  15. Oh, its also a dupe too of another article posted today but thats to be expected I guess.

  16. TLDR version of article Orange man bad! Orange man bad! ORANGE MAN BAD!

  17. Even if it was somehow triggered by trump's trade policy what does the NYT want us to do? Roll over and beg for mercy?

  18. The country with the most surveillance per capita in the entire world cares about privacy.

    Until they graduate to using your uncles first cousin's DNA to link you to a protest movement, or to determine you have a greater chance for a medical condition to raise your fees, or to decide your family has a tendency for unorthodox thinking and assign you to reeducation. But trust them. It will never come to that.

  20. Perception is Reality on Facebook Becomes 'A Haven For the Anti-Vaccination Movement' (siliconvalley.com) · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    You can just as easily spin these outbreaks as proof that we need tougher border controls but of course the good little robots only bleat what the MSM programs them to so its as if the concept doesn't exist outside the much smaller rightwingblogosphere.

  21. Maybe an amateur but most professional comedians seem to tend towards being very dark bitter people under the surface. This would probably overcome any sort of advantage they give to group cohesion.

  22. I told a bunch of idiots that were all for it at the very beginning years ago that this mess wouldnt work and of course they wouldn't listen to me.

  23. since the chicken littles predicted doom and bladerunneresqe internets with the disappearance of net neutrality and so far the only censorship I see is still almost all from the upstream social media and media platforms (Google/Facebook/Amazon etc) which the mainstream conception of net neutrality does nothing about and in fact most of the supporters of NN and aforementioned corporations love for some reason. Maybe we should, I dunno, actually do something that solves problems we do have?

  24. Dislike mob = We don't like their opinion on YouTube Struggles To Fight Mobs Weaponizing Their 'Dislike' Button (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    If Google and other corps are going to just dismiss feedback they dont like might as well not have the farce of a rating system at all. Just disable it by default and then you can churn out as many SJW vids as you like and imagine they're all universally beloved.

  25. We're already transitioning beyond fossil fuels just fine. It can't be stopped by Trump and it doesn't need the help of the Dems. Fossil fuels are used largely where they're still economical. They'll change over when it makes sense from a holistic perspective not because of fearmongering and excessive legislative bullying. Whatever globull warming happens is going to happen. Most likely life will go on pretty much as badly or as well as it would anyway. If you want to 'help', concentrate on effective positive approaches like contributing either directly through being a scientists/entrepeneaur etc or indirectly by doing things such as being a good citizen generating economic activity rather than approaches that have repeatedly proven to be ineffective such as supporting oppressive regulations, or centralizing government power in the hands of globalists, or spewing more carbon screaming impotently at 'denialists' in pointless thousand page internet threads.
