Hmm, this thing is on my work laptop…

Too damn late

I trust my billion-dollar a year law firm’s VPN to block out this nonsense; we’ve got clients who are way more worried about our security than the government sniffing around.

Well, sure, but reddit (and FB, and Insta, and discord, and bluesky and mastadon and twitter and just about everything else out there, probably including Lemmy) are privately owned. Their sandboxes. Now, something like IRC or Usenet (which I still miss) is another matter.

…anymore? When my mother worked there (admittedly, decades ago), the catholic chaplain conducted mass every Friday morning. (Very quickly. “GodblessAmenGetbacktowork.”) They also had other religion’s services. Nothing mandatory.

well, it’s a private platform; their sandbox, their rules. It would be nice if they could enforce them equitably, though.

definitely. Going public helped the shareholders, not the users.

they banned me for violations on my “other accounts.”

I don’t have any other accounts.

At which point I will be off Reddit entirely

that committee says she still needs to appear.

I’ll believe it when I see it

ok I see it

They can back anyone they want–and lose their tax exempt status. They can’t have it both ways.

What is actually wrong with these people?

About damn time

Shocking. I’m shocked, I tell you.
