This seems like it’s a very, very good thing…so lets see how people on here spin it as something absolutely deplorable.

What “free speech crackdown” are they talking about? They don’t give any examples, and it’s just a passing comment in the article really. How is “MAGA” cracking down on free speech?
Separately, video from November 2023 appeared to show one member of the group, who are from Northern Ireland, saying: “The only good Tory is a dead Tory. Kill your local MP.”
I’d like to know the context that this was supposedly in that makes it ok lol
As long as the library owner has a Plex Pass nothing changes for ANYONE who is streaming from that Plex Server.
It’s not though, because as someone that has a Plex Pass nothing changes for them or anyone who streams from their server.
The email says that if the admin/owner of the plex server you stream from has a Plex Pass then nothing changes.
It’s not exactly difficult if you use Tailscale or really any VPN. So I really don’t see the value for the cost;
Getting everyone that streams from your server to use tailscale or any other VPN every time they want to watch stuff from your server on any device they own is very difficult and basically a no-go. As someone that tried getting people who are using my plex server to use Tailscale so they could access my Overseer to request movies/shows, and basically no one would, it’s a deal breaker.
Wait so you’ve got a lifetime plex pass already? Then literally nothing changes for you or anyone that is streaming from your server.
So you will believe a rumour based on nothing but won’t believe the board of directors denying said rumour unless they sue? What kind of crazy mindset is that?
This has been directly refuted by the Tesla board, who even told the reporters that it wasn’t true when they were asked before the article was published……then they published it anyway and didn’t include the boards comments lol
Not to mention it’s optional, entirely on device, and secure.
Let’s be honest, most of Lemmy users complaining about it are on Linux or a Chromebook anyway. They can’t use it even if they wanted to.
I’m not sure anyone really cares about PewDiePie anymore, let alone what OS he uses.
They definitely wouldn’t, but even if they did……people that do not have the right to work in the country should not be working in the country.
Your first instinct is that an assumed illegal immigrant is a trump goon?
I remember Usenet, in fact I still use it to this very day.
If people want to engage with the “bad actor” then that’s their right.
You know what also makes new people not stick around? Over zealous moderation, especially when it’s clearly biased towards maintaining an echo chamber. More and more people are waking up to the fact that censorship is getting out of control, especially on social media sites, and they don’t like it.
Given self moderation and overarching and overbearing moderation are both the kiss of death, the one where a few people control the whole thing and direct the echo chamber is the more destructive imo.
The only real moderation that needs to happen is self moderation. If you see someone saying stuff that you don’t like, block them. That persons opinions are now gone for all that matters to you. There’s no need for their opinions to be removed for everyone. Everyone has the capabilities to moderate their own experience.
If someone keeps being racist and it bothers you, block them. If someone keeps name calling and it bothers you, block them. Those of us who aren’t bothered by opinions we don’t agree with or by people saying things we don’t like can still engage with those people and perhaps even teach (or learn!) something.
There should be very few restrictions on speech, especially in an online forum/community, imo, restricted basically only for trying to incite or threatening actual physical harm.
Moderation/censorship of speech, especially when the power to decide what gets removed and who gets banned and for how long is just given to random people on the internet, usually because they’re friends with and share ideologies and opinion with mods/admin, inevitably leads to a “safe space” echo chamber where any dissenting views are not allowed, while the allowed views are allowed to be presented in whatever manner they want, including calls for violence, abuse, etc. See Reddit as the absolute biggest and most current example. Twitter before that.
Hey guys! Do you guys have any recommendations for an iOS app to use? I downloaded voyager so am trying that out, but is there one you guys prefer?
“Book bans” at schools are not the same. Some books are not suitable for children, free speech has nothing to do with it.
“Forcibly hospitalize” is not “jail”.
Completely untrue misinformation.
