Bye Bye Substack?
Tyranny Arrives
This morning I was shocked to encounter this, preventing me from reading an article here on Substack:
Note: This doesn’t occur on all browsers. I’m able to play games (hack) my way around it for now.
At the moment this doesn’t appear to be a hard barrier but I’m shocked to see it at all! Is this another harbinger of the coming of the end of freedom?
Has tyranny actually won? Have we lost the Internet?
Do I need to repeat myself: do not submit to age verification. Age verification by definition requires you to identify yourself. Once you submit to identifying yourself on the Internet you have agreed to let others control what you are allowed to see and what you may not read.
Do not “protect the children” by destroying freedom and embracing tyranny for everyone!
Thanks, John. I have zero intention of doing anything the blob requests.
Slide on over to Sasha Latypova’s stack and read her latest. Class action suit against Substack is being reviewed as are other remedies for this BS.
December 27th is a notable date of full internet censorship in Australia.
and so it begins…I’ve been seeing age verification for posts on X as well…just a matter of time before we need facial recognition to get online at all…
