yeah, no.

thing is: YT/google/the data kraken knows you regardless of wether or not you're logged in.

they track everything from IP, to location (even just approximate based on IP), screen size, browser, OS, and sooo much more.

being logged in makes it easier to track you within a site, but you get tracked regardless.

your source is exclusively about aggressive behavior...

it uses the term "arousal", which is not referring to sexual arousal, but rather a state of heightened agitation.

provide an actual source in support of your claim, or stop spreading misinformation.

nProtect seems to be even worse than it sounds:

no idea if they patched any of that since, but accepting non-validated DLLs is some wild level of neglect...

Also let me emphasize this: for every discord server shut down like this, there are 100+ servers with almost the same purpose that still exist and will continue to for at least the next 3y.

you completely missed the point here:

the issue that those aren't around NOW, the issue is that they WILL inevitably disappear eventually and every shred of knowledge platformed there will be irretrievably lost to the void.

discord is a black hole for information:

it sucks information in and deletes it from existence.

that's why it's bad.

the time frame doesn't really matter here.

actually, that's not what the law says.

the law says that "overcoming" security measures is a crime. nothing was "overcome".

plaintext is simply not a "security measure" and the law was applied wrong.

there may have been some form of infringement in regards to privacy or sensitive data or whatever, but it definitely wasn't "hacking" of any kind.

just like it isn't "hacking" to browse someone's computer files when they leave a device unlocked and accessible to anyone. invasion of privacy? sure. but not hacking.

and the law as written (§202a StGB) definitely states that security measures have to be circumvented in order to be applied.

that's the problem with the case!

not that the guy overstepped his bounds, but that the law was applied blatantly wrong and no due diligence was used in determining the outcome of the case.

the UK cannot be included, because they aren't a Schengen-member and the EU doesn't want customs checks on their train lines...

it's entirely up to the UK what they do with their rails within their borders.

and as was already pointed out:

there already IS a connection between the EU and the UK!!

the new plans are largely for connections between capitals of EU countries and major population centers, both of which already have rail connections in the UK.

so what do you expect the EU to do about the rail network in the UK?

was it?

i always thought that's mostly because german fascists dragged both of those countries into war by attacking them, which caused severe backlash by proxy, and not really antifa being particularly effective in those countries.

explains why the U.S., despite having a large fascist movement at the time, reversed course and turned on fascism as an ideology (in public); they got attacked.

same in Britain; early attacks in the war, plus some lingering resentment from WWI, combined overcoming a push towards fascism...

I'd love to hear/read more about successful antifa movements in the UK/US, but that's what I've always thought/read were the major reasons for failing fascist movements in those countries: other fascists...
