EFF launching campaign against content policing by ISPs

[mindlessobserver]

Lol, get rektd No-Dong.

I have to wonder what he's thinking. He has to know this is because of his shenanigans. That level of institutional attention has to make him feel a phantom boner.

On the other hand they don't agree with him and he knows this is a direct slap across the face.

He's seething. They didn't mention us by name and they disagree with him. All of his "hard work" was literally for nothing. KF still lives and there's institutional push back against his type of crusade.

The stars aligned briefly to where it looked like censorship was going to win. Then KF came back up, companies started telling him to pound sand, and Musk took over Twitter. Free speech as a culture rides again.

I'm probably optimistic here but I don't think such a perfect storm of the last few months wrt internet censorship in general will happen again. Obviously the trannies are going to keep trying, but I don't think they'll succeed in getting wrongthink off the internet again.

Sorry for double post, but I have a little clarification about the supposed hatred for trannies here on Kiwifarms.
I haven't read all the threads in the Stinkditch section, but considering what I read, I think that the "KF hates trans people!" statement is completely wrong.
I haven't seen the farms go after a "normal" (if we could say so) tranny: for normal, I mean a person who decides to transition and go on with his life. I still think that a person who cuts his dick off is mentally ill, but if their mental illness ends there, there's no problem for me: they can do what they want with their bodies.

When I see the farms opening a thread about a tranny, his tranny-dom is never the main point. The person deserves a thread because:
- is grooming minors;
- attempts to make minors transition behind their parents' backs;
- is a grifter who abuses GoFundMe to suck off people's money;
- is attempting to silence dissent and reasonable discussion about transgenderism;
- rapes or attempts to rape people;
- invades women's online spaces and demands to be accepted without discussion;
- involves himself in autistic internet drama with youtubers, bloggers, real life celebrities, etc.;
Considering all of this, it looks like that their tranny-dom is only a crazy addition to a list of far worse actions that the person has made.
If a person who does all of the above wasn't a tranny, but a cis-hetero man, wouldn't he have a thread on here? I think he would.

That's why the whole "KF hates trans people!" narrative falls apart.

I don't know if that's really true.

The main reason KF doesn't hate trans people is because KF isn't a hive mind. There are absolutely people on the site who are extremely offended just by the idea of a man calling himself a woman, and there are threads where the main discussion is just malding over the fact someone's trans.

Nobody should feel the need to engage in apologetics or produce some Tumblr-style moral justification.

Individuals of interest are on here because some number of people want to post about them, and people should have the right to express things without righteous cause. Whether or not anyone hates transexuals is irrelevant to actual content policing; the response to disliking someone's opinions is to say you think their opinions are stupid, not to muzzle them.

While the EFF doesn't seem to have teeth (browser wars anyone?) this is better than nothing. At the very least it will make trannies seethe and it's always a good thing.

ACLU used to stand up for free speech, no matter how reprehensible it might be, until the trannies infiltrated and perverted their mission.
How long will the EFF last until one of their own reveals their mental illness?

It wasn't the trannies in the ACLU, it was all that left wing donor class money. Melinda gates, Bezos' ex-whore, etc.

I hate trans people.

I don't.
BAM narrative destroyed.

I just find it rather hard to believe that we need to tell ISPs to stop acting like they are a “Brave New World” style government that gets to silence and suppress freedom of expression/opinion and act as if they are a betterment to society.

Did Jihadi Josh get in touch with Corynne McSherry as he said we would during one of his streams? Could this be the end result or perhaps a side effect of their fruitful/fruitless/futile communication? Tune in to never find out!

 

[robobobo]

The EFF doesn't like us. But we're a forum full of speds and assholes who call people niggerfaggots, so few people out there actually do like us. I wouldn't bet money that the EFF would stand up for us if their backs were really against the wall, but they do actually push for what they say they stand for, so credit where credit's due. They're the only charity I donate to aside from the local food bank. I used to also donate to the Internet Archive, but that stopped when they caved to troons and censored us.

 

[DrNow]

This document is a pretty devastating blow to the aspirations of these censorious scumbags. I talked about wanting a single document that could be easily shared and replicated and did some writing, and whilst I'd like to do more with this just for my own enjoyment, I think this statement can be presented to pretty much anybody screaming 'shut it down'. There's no counterpoint to this from the troon army. They have nothing but hysterics.

 

[Null]

Why are you letting that stand? That's pure misrepresentation. It's literally the other way around: we're here, minding our own business and saying what we want and they're shitting on  our carpet.

Cuz they're just repeating media lies and I have no say over it. What am I supposed to do? Sue them?

 

[Well Intentioned]

I dont get the impression that the EFF is our friend or that I should have any faith in them to stand up to bullies. We will be one of those exceptions theyre talking about.

Strong ACLU supporting Skokie marchers vibes.

Remember when the ACLU actually cared about constitutional issues?

Also, their education campaigns against the RIAA and Net Neutrality had massive reach/impact. There's a lot of potential for informing the general public of what exactly is going on. I liked the examples about DNS Abuse in Africa that were cited (although I get the average person reading that shit won't give 2 fucks and not make the connection.)

 

[Devious Dave]

This is off topic but during the Kanye Alex Jones interview yesterday Jones mentioned they are working with people who are close to creating their own bank
and making a payment processor for online transactions so maybe there's hope for null

 

[The Mass Shooter Ron Soye]

Does the EFF have any teeth anymore? Last I heard from them they got outplayed during the browser wars and now we all have DRM on our browsers.

While the EFF doesn't seem to have teeth (browser wars anyone?) this is better than nothing. At the very least it will make trannies seethe and it's always a good thing.

Maybe I'm misremembering the history, but wasn't it the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) that got played, infiltrated by Google/Microsoft/Facebook/etc. employees, and inserted DRM into web standards?

EFF might have made some ineffectual pronouncements and protests about DRM, but I don't think it really mattered in the long run. All content is susceptible to the analog hole, and every bit of protected media is endlessly pirated across a decentralized ecosystem of pirate streaming sites, torrents, cloud storage drops, etc. Always under attack by the MAFIAA but still thriving.

No, but if you don't at least argue the point, they'll take that as admission of guilt.

You  know how their minds work.

Woke spergs have always cheered on muslims trying to murder rushdie, they also supported the Charlie Hebdo attacks. Some people think they just dont understand how limiting free speech is bad, they dont care they want to end people who upset them

 

[Pitbull Victim]

No, but if you don't at least argue the point, they'll take that as admission of guilt.

If you try to argue though, some lapdog like Ben Collins will show up and call you a liar and then every future mainstream article will feature some line like "Joshua Moon, the Kiwi Farms owner, claims X but reporting by MSM disinformation expert Hiredgun Fuckface actually shows that is untrue."

Anything you say will just be twisted agaisnt you, better to just not engage.
