This is a containment thread for meta discussion that doesn't fall into complaints and suggestions. Feel free to tinfoil or talk about the state of the site but try to avoid being too autistic.
If you have to say that you think Cerbmin needs to hear, post it here for the highest chance of it being seen.

This is a warning for both this site and any other place you frequent.
https://bylinetimes.com/2025/07/31/the-online-safety-act-is-forcing-brits-to-hand-over-personal-data-to-unregulated-overseas-corporations-with-questionable-privacy-records/AU10TIX (Used by ‘X’)>Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter) has used Israeli firm AU10TIX for ID document and selfie‑based checks since 2023 – originally to verify premium ‘blue check’ users, and now to comply with age assurance requirements. The company, spun out of ICTS International – founded by former Shin Bet (Israeli domestic intelligence) officers – also employs engineers with backgrounds in Israel’s military cyber‑intelligence unit, Unit 8200. AU10TIX’s privacy policy lets it process data under the broad umbrella of “legitimate interests,” potentially allowing reuse or sharing beyond age checks. Kids Web Services (Used by Bluesky)>Bluesky, generally viewed as more privacy-oriented than other legacy social media platforms, uses an age verification service called Kids Web Services (KWS). KWS is owned by US company EpicGames, known for producing the popular game Fortnite – and paying out $520 million to the US Federal Trade Commission in 2022 for manipulating users and violating children’s privacy laws. >EpicGames offers KWS’ age assurance services to clients like BlueSky free of charge, but they don’t come out of it completely empty-handed. KWS gets access to some combination of email addresses, names, dates of birth, mailing addresses, national identity numbers, cell phone numbers, device identifiers, IP addresses, login data, site navigation data and more. Persona Identities Inc (Used by Reddit)>The popular forum Reddit uses the San Francisco‑based firm Persona for age checks. In 2025, Persona raised $200m in a round led by the Founders Fund, the venture capital group run by data magnate Peter Thiel.>Thiel’s company, Palantir, has been widely criticised for its ties to the Trump administration and its US surveillance, security, and immigration enforcement contracts.>Persona has faced lawsuits in the US alleging that it retained the biometric data of food delivery drivers and that it used users’ selfies to train AI models – claims it denies. Its privacy policy promises to delete face scans after seven days, but vaguely allows data use for “service improvement” and, since 2025, requires users to waive their right to join class‑action lawsuits.

>>96578If only. In practice, the owner will just block the entirety of UK like SS did and Wikipedia threatens to do.

>>96590Great and then there'll still be photos of her on the front page. We need to start banning these freaks and don't unban them until they appeal the ban in such a way that proves they're not a bot or some PR firm work experience kid.
