The whole suddenly not allowed to sell porn games, and all these states and countries in acting id laws is just a precursor to censorship and blocking us from organizing against the super rich. They will ban porn but next violent content. But unless we stand up and fight back they will block all annomimity on the web.
Everything is moving very, very fast too.
EU, please, can we STOP being beholden to all this American shit that can go insane at any moment?
You think the same Billionaires that fucked us here in the US aren’t doing the same to you? We were just the trial run
no. i just think we still have time to do something about it.
Hoping that the pushback will crush these new regulations, this really sucks for creative freedom and consumer choice.
