How long will it be before this website gets banned??

[damaged_soul]

I just found out about the new bill that is endangering this website. It seems like a recent thing, as I did not see a notification about it on Sunday when I was last active. I am totally freaking out over this. I simply can't imagine what I would do without this site. This site is literally my only outlet, the only place I can go to share my feelings without fear of being shoved into a psych ward. This site is the only thing that brings me any semblance of peace. Ironically, if this site gets banned, I would be way, way more likely to kill myself, yet my death would be far worse and more painful. I was actually having a reasonable and productive day today until I found out about this news. Now I can't focus on anything. How long would it take before this site gets banned? What's the deadline by which the outcome of the bill will be decided? How long do we have to submit our comments to our representatives? Would there be any alternatives or remedies for the situation (e.g. an alternate suicide forum or using VPN) or would we just totally be screwed? I need to know how much time I have left and within that time I need to copy all the information I can possibly find into my suicide research notes so that I will have it for safekeeping.

This website and others like these are a hydra cut off one head, and 2 more grow in it's place. Society wants us out of sight and out of mind, they want us to go along with the pro lifers torturous existance. However they are not addressing the root cause of the problems suicidal people have with society. They might not even be able to. If they really want websites like this to close down legalize pas and make it so people with unbearable suffering can go to a clinic to die.

Yes, I am totally with you on that. If people truly cared about us, they would work on the problems that cause people to become suicidal in the first place rather than stopping people from committing suicide by force. The use the second approach because they are way too lazy to do the first. It's simply much easier for them to force us to not kill ourselves than do the dirty work of actually improving society. It's crazy how they don't want us to have access to suicide methods info but at the same time they don't want us to be able to get euthanasia/death with dignity either. They're basically just forcing us to suffer for the sake of it.

The site will pull through one way or another, I guarantee it. Worst case scenario you'll have to access it through tor or VPN

Don't know how the hell I'd do that on my cell phone.

There's plenty of VPN apps like Proton, they're quite straight forward

If those little pro-life busybodies had some payback or blowback from their meddling in our affairs........they might decide for their health to move on to aggravating anyone else but us.
I suppose I am now labeled a suicidal militant. I just positively hate people who wish to make others suffer for no reason.

I feel the same way, I don't even remember how I found this forum but I wouldn't be able to find a similar one again. I hope if it is shut down there will be a new one and enough time for us all to have the address to it, cause it would be impossible to find. I can only hope

I think that it is incredible that a website like Sanctioned Suicide has been able to exist as long as it has in a world where death and suicide are taboo. To deliberately causing human death is not accepted in 2022, no matter how much we suffer. There should be euthanasia clinics in every country instead of forcing people to die from old age. The healthcare shouldn´t only help people with birth and diseases, we should also be helped to die.

All it really takes is some influencer on TikTok or YouTube to highlight this "super scary suicide site" in a viral video, and it'll all come crumbling down in a matter of hours. And honestly, this is the BEST CASE SCENARIO. If one of the members does something disgusting like going on a rampage before offing themselves, best believe that the Feds are getting involved, and all our user data is getting subpoenaed, even if we had nothing to do with their despicable actions.

How is all of our user data going to get subpoenaed when the USA has no jurisdiction over the country where the website is hosted from?

Good question. Maybe "subpoena" isn't the right word, but they have their ways and means of getting data on the people they want. For example, Protonmail is based in Switzerland, but US law-enforcement are still able to get people's data.

true, but in my original comment, I gave a hypothetical wherein a member of SS hypothetically committed a serious crime on US soil. What actions the feds take from that point is anyone's guess, but at the very least, this site would come under some scrutiny. I also did mention them subpoenaing everyone's info is a worst case scenario. It's likely that everything I said won't happen, but at the very least, I want everyone to be aware that we're treading on very thin ice.

I do believe that this site will likely end and that's simply just the way that things are. Everything is destined to end someday and nothing ever lasts. There is nothing that we can do about this. After all, we do live in such a pro life society that places so much value on life and unfairly does everything to make suicide as difficult and painful and as possible for people. This is the unfortunate reality. It's like these people forget that we will all die anyway eventually, the truth is that death is simply an inevitable part of life, and if someone wants to prevent unnecessary suffering and problems by ending their own life then their decision should be respected.

That's very sad. It's so sad how all good things come to an end. I am really hoping that Dot is right and we won't have to worry too much.
