2025-07-25 - OFCOM: "Ofcom engagement - Availability of KiwiFarms in UK"

[Fcret]

I don't know how many times I've seen Limeys--even Limeys with whom I'd normally agree on things--brag about how the UK invented the big-I Internet, obviously confounding that with the three-big-Ws World Wide Web invented by Limey Tim Berners-Lee (but while living in CH).

It's too bad where a long haul from the regulation-resistant network those American inventors originally envisioned.

PS I know that the primary purpose was to make it network cut-line resistant, but I was around before the WWW and remember how the freedom from regulation a selling point was also, the Network's being able to route around any authoritarian impediments as well as technical ones.

Technically they did independently invent the concept of a packet-switched network in the 50s although RAND also came up with the idea.

But yes, Britain has not been a particularly technologically impressive country since the 90s when all the hobbyist kids from the 80s grew up and got real jobs (in the US).

What are they so afraid of?

They are terrified of freedom.

They are terrified of people they cannot bring to heel, such as Americans.

Fuck them, fully.

They're going to have one of their wig wearing lawyers send you a strongly written letter.

Josh, if they send you such a letter how about wiping your ass with it and posting a picture of it here? Am sure the Airstrip One regime would get a big kick out of that! I sure would!

It’s interesting watching all these other countries and companies do a coordinated mass censorship/id/data gathering attempt at the same time. Really gets the brain working.

To partly answer @Sweeter and Savoury - I think that the Government and OFCOM will want to win badly, even if it means by cheating.

Don't forget that they're both getting the fingers flicked at them from both the Left and Right currently, with Palestine Action winning their appeal and the Kneecap chap now likely to win his Court Case.

When you mock a brat, the brat will cry back a lot harder and louder.

Therefore, I am going to call it now - a false flag event or two will happen in August to make people scared and conform and the BBC will be told 'frame Palestine Action/Kiwi Farms supporters as terrorists - THEY are responsible for this, they did the bad thing, we're the good guys!'

Now, whether or not the BBC is prepared to take the risk of branding the 'Far Left' as 'terrorists' as they would the 'Far Right' remains to be seen, but it would lead to more on the Left of politics abandoning the BBC and refusing to pay the Licence Fee.

Do not put it past the Government to arrange something bad - they will do anything for conformity.

It would be funny to identify as African-American and respond they are being racist and not inclusive by using British standard english and instead of writing the response in African American Vernacular English.

"Aight look, first thing y’all gon’ need to do is come at us correct. We noticed y’all ain’t once tried to speak to us in our language, and that’s real telling. If y’all serious about inclusivity and protecting folks, especially in a global digital space, how come y’all ain’t even tried to communicate in a way that respect cultural dialects like our speakin. That ain’t nothin’ but erasure, and yeah—it do come off racist. We ain’t askin’ for special treatment, we askin’ for equal respect. So before we move forward, we expect y’all to acknowledge that and meet us where we at—language included."

Yes, the campaign against VPNs has begun.

You should take solace he's literally on air begging people to not use VPNs aswell as threatening and slandering them.

I never expected shit to get this dystopian for the UK in 2025. As if they could do anything to a website that's completely unrelated to the UK, but it's infuriating that they nevertheless have the audacity to send such letters. Muh child safety, yeah right, fuck off.

Believe it, and the scary thing is, Labour will be in power for a few more years (2029) so they're hardly going to resist becoming even more tyrannical like the powerhungry fuckheads they are. Going to have to get a lot worse for Britain before anything gets better.

Sue these fucking niggers, Wikipedia are crawling up their ass as well, make an example out of these authoritarian faggots.

So to just to offer an insight into the thinking of the UK judicial system and to a lesser extent high ranking civil servants. (UK politicans don't really matter) In 2010 when Obama of all people signed a law into being that declared UK libel tourism was over, it caused consternation, a steady earner for certain UK law firms and the city of London was ended by a single signature. Likewise when the US DOJ started going after various UK businesmen that thought conducting their method of business in the US would be similar to the UK. The online safety act came in under the radar, it is the work of the British civil service not any political party and now they starting to get worked up in case the NYT or WaPo decide to publish the form emails that ofcom sent them. I'm willing to bet the UK ambassador has been on the phone to the US media for the last month telling them of course 'we don't mean you'..... it's the conspiracy theorists. We'll see how it works out because the UK is shit out of friends at the moment and can't afford to be offending the US.

If you're based enough, you can probably 90 Day Fiancé your way into an American citizenship and taste the sweet taste of freedom for the first time in your pathetic lives.

Note that getting married solely so that an alien can obtain citizenship is a felony punishable by up to five years in prison for both the citizen and the alien. (That's the maximum sentence. The typical sentence for an otherwise-law-abiding person is 0–6 months.)

Wonder if the Chuckster is on here. He'd probably enjoy it, could say whatever he liked without having to sound kingly. Could you imagine the Chuckster's feelings the first time he told someone here to bite his ass? He'd feel liberated. Seriously, the Chuckster needs to do this while he still can.

Cool it with the anti-semetic remarks.

Remind those britcucks of what happened the last time their country tried to enforce their laws on the US

If these foreign corps offering services had backbone they would pull access immediately from the UK, but they are all in agreement. The WEF/NWO has hit accelerate. This act is a simple rally point for people to stand on.

Sadly I have such little faith in the average Brit who is such a useless complicit subhuman that I fear after a while they will choose “convenience” over doing the right thing. Oh I don’t care/have nothing to hide and it’s good for the kids. Please inject more gibs and government brain rot into my veins.
