This is your mind on porn. First they came for the porn. And I didn't speak up. Now they came for the Kiwi Fruit Fourm. It's ridiculous. And we would fight in court retard.
Whenever the UK banned websites, they only ever banned specific domains. I would expect boomer congress to do the same.
Banned: Kiwifarms.su
New domain: kiwifarms.net/ch/tor/xyz/etcetera
Banned: "kiwifarms"
New domain: kiwifarm.su
Repeat forever.
If they say it's on ISPs to do it, they can be fickle too. VirginMedia banned sites as they were listed specifically, but BT would also ban derivatives. There's also a shared list all these providers have access to that automatically bans/filters out hyper-illegal shit and certain piracy sites, so if a similar list was created but specifically for sites that say no-no words and such things were illegalised, then the farms might be at risk, but I doubt such a thing would ever be made or implemented into law, never mind the 1st amendment it's just common sense.

Kiwifarms is so specific and harmless a website I can't imagine it appearing on anyone's radar for overly long. Like, harmless objectively speaking. There's no proliferation of CP or illegally acquired info, and harassment campaigns aren't organised to relentlessly badger and bully people offline and online, or encourage people with mental health problems to descend further into their insanity until they inevitably commit suicide...

They should ban reddit instead.

We have a porn ban in Utah. You type in certain sites like Pornhub, it's just on a list now needing ID verification. Like you said, by domain. It is the most basic bitch whitelist you've ever seen. They aren't even blocking the site.

If they ever implemented ID verification for porn and such nationwide it'd likely be done at the ISP level. Sorry again to use my own country as precedent but it seems the easiest. In the UK our government began the process to make porn access ID mandatory but it was a non-starter because they began with "porn passes" as opposed to anything digital and it was laughed into abandonment. Where they got some success though was with mobile data providers, where adult websites are blocked (even includes shit like DeviantArt just in case) until you verify your age with them.

I imagine that would be preferable than having every porn site implement a similar ID system, since the company your proving you're an adult to already has your payment info so it's slightly less worrying than having to give it out to random websites online. Though I guess it takes responsibility out of the porn peddler's hands on whether minors are viewing their material or not.
 
I have a question about the recent SCOTUS rulings.

Didn't we literally just get a SCOTUS rulings vacating a judge's injunction and the guy instantly just said "actually it is still in full force"?

Exactly what is stopping random federal judges from just ignoring the recent universal injunction ruling just to gum up the world? What makes this different?

Maybe. That wasn't the question decided today though that people are talking about. It's if Texas can have ID verification. And it seems they can. It won't be at ISP level, not for individual states anyway, they don't have enough pull

Harmless? It threatens information control and embarasses people with moderate amounts of power.

The people in power view CP like a drug. Its a tool, and a weapon, and a means of control. Its not a problem for them. Kiwifarms? All it takes is one person with sufficient power and connections. The site almost folded to somebody like Dong Fongs level of influence. Now imagine someone with actual power.

There was a alternate reality where fags like Destiny and Hadan got access to the white house. Hasan fucked it up. But they could have whispered in way more powerful ears than what some of this sites enemies have had to bear.

Who is going to enforce the judges orders?
 
The biggest mistake ever made by the White Man was the British pussying out on buck breaking Hinduism. After the Sepoy Rebellion they actively protected Hindooism and Islam from proselytizing activity. They should have hung every thakir they could get their hands on. It's a beastly religion and is the main thing to blame for the godless, civilization-less state of India. For all its faults, the post-Spanish world have at least a shred of Christendom in them to save them from going full Aztec.
The British’s biggest mistake was leaving their blankets at home.
 
So, anon... nature is somehow healing

>We have a Republican President
>We’re at war in the middle east
>There’s a new Linkin Park Album
>Micheal Bay is directing a new Transformers movie

Fuck it close enough welcome back 2007
> Next year recession ? 👀
Oblivion also came out again with modern graphics. 2006, but close enough.
 
You people really are un-american idiots. To be so easily tricked. Begging for your own subjugation just to "own the libz." What a joke.
You seem to not mind authoritarianism as long as the boot on your throat is worn on the left foot.
ICE going masked shouldn’t worry American citizens, because American citizens aren’t their targets. Illegals might have an issue with it but guess what, no criminal enjoys being policed, and all illegals are criminals. If they don’t like being policed in the USA they can fuck back off to El Mierdador.

lol so it sounds like that's just a DNS hijack, which you can immediately bypass via DNS-over-HTTPS from free DNS providers like quad9, google and (spit) cloudflare. Plenty of others too.
 
I feel like there is going to be a lot of knock-on effects from this. Parents practicing faith-healing can opt their kids out of health class? Flat earthers can opt their kids out of geography? This is going to raise a lot more questions than it answers.

Being gay isn't specifically banned in the USA. If Muslims can't handle that, maybe they'd be better off in another country? I would posit that Islam is fundamentally incompatible with a modern, liberal society.
Apologies for replying to a now old post (this thread moves so fast that something posted less than 12 hours ago is probably considered old). However comma.

The separation between church and state has been contentious from the start. It’s forever a grey area. But flat-earthers aren’t a religion. Faith-based healing that crosses the line into child neglect/abuse becomes a very different problem altogether.

As far as the issue at hand, while being gay isn’t banned in the US, it is diametrically opposed to ALL religions. But even those few Protestant or non-denominational churches that insist on pushing gay inclusivity still have a voice here. The Supreme Court never said “You can’t do this.” They said you’re not allowed to push it on children if the parents want no part in it.

And, as always, the question becomes “Why was this allowed to begin with?” Why the fuck did we need the Supreme Court to tell us that maybe, just maybe, talking about gay butt sex in public schools was a bad idea?
