This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
the utility of the nation/state has been broken by 21st century meta-national billionaires
unions are useful but they no longer cover the distance between labor and capital
we need a new group of collective shit to aspire to because humans gonna human
The Un doesn't do it for you/us?
Of course it has. It says everything you need to know
Maybe they should be investigated for all the child porn they used to host and the TD contributions to the riots
To this day, I still can't believe how long Reddit defended underage porn subreddits. Literally do nothing and say "free speech" . Then suddenly a news article happens and then they finally take action.

A censorship promoting platform flees censorship?
The moved their jurisdiction to the Netherlands? In the EU? Wow. Now the GDPR can be used to really kick their butts.
GDPR applies regardless of where headquarters are located
There is always the issue of "x applies" and "x is enforcable". Think of Signal or Telegram here.

I wonder what their reasons for moving were. Is that where Steve Huffman wants to build his new doomsday bunker? Gotta spread out just in case. Maybe connect it to the one in CA with a massive underwater tunnel lol clown
Oh we got a bunch of leeches in Europe, Ireland is not the only one
They usually operate in tandem, a double dutch irish tax sandwich or whatever it is called.
