My friend actually did through a private forum to get a drug combo to end her life for $300 death is expensive

And once place where you can buy stuff to end your life is on Amazon. You can buy a rope. Ban Amazon.

Thank you for not giving up.

I believe this website can give hope to some, and be useful to transform an idea (the mere "killing oneself") into a more informed one, often pushing back from actually doing after learning more on the topic.

Society will hardly ever see it, but thanks to you there's a place for people to be understood, rather than being just told "find help"...

The insufferable regulator is trying to get a windfall from SS now?

Ofcom are assholes tell them to go fuck themselves.

This person supplying SN from UK that's been convicted is gonna make it so much harder

 

[BlockedintheUK]

Ofcom are defeating themselves all action taken against this site and sites like it gives it huge amounts of attention and publicity that it otherwise wouldn't have.

I remember when states in the USA banned raw milk and it suddenly exploded in popularity as a result suddenly everyone wanted to know what the fuss was about.

Its about time someone kicked ofcoms ass.

I'm waiting for the day another USA site replies to their formal request with "Dear Sir / Madam it's 1st amendment protected so kindly fuck off"

They blocked UK users already months ago FFS. Not the sites fault if people are bypassing it with a VPN. I'm so fucking ashamed to be British it's so laughable trying to take the whole site down when it's nothing to do with the UK. Honestly the whole thing makes me feel so angry and even more depressed. This place has supported me through 3 1/2 years and even though I no longer come on so much I will always defend what the site stands for as I don't recognise this "pro-suicide" encourages the vulnerable yada yada load of crap they always spout.

They always test their new boot on the neck of the most marginalized and misunderstood in society...
We aren't allowed community, the state will ensure we are always dependent on them, and not each other; that's how control is maintained. Because they can always exercise power over us, but we cannot exercise power over each other, that's what threatens their control.

Because what this is really about, what it's always about, is they want a population of obedient, efficient worker drones.
If we divest from the state's total control of our bodies, and we demand a right to control of our own lives, dignity and of full bodily autonomy (which necessarily includes the right to die,) that's potential decades of labour our bodies are still useful to them for, that they could've otherwise extracted from us.

We aren't people to them, we're machines; and if we are given a right to die, that precludes total autonomy of self, which is a huge threat to the system built on the extraction of labour and value from our (everyone's) bodies for the ultra-rich.

Also, isn't Rain based in the UK?

Her full name here is: Rain and Sadness.

She does a wonderful job of keeping this site up and running.

Update from ofcoms open investigation into SaSu:

Ofcom has today (6 January 2026) informed the provider of this suicide forum that, having reviewed the available evidence, we are working towards issuing a provisional notice of contravention ('Provisional Decision') in relation to breaches of the Online Safety Act ('the Act'). This is part of the legal process we must follow as part of any investigation. While no formal decision has yet been reached, we are working to issue this in the first quarter of this year. The provider will then have an opportunity to make representations on our Provisional Decision, as required by the Act.

Unless our concerns are fully addressed, we will consider using all of the powers available to us. These include imposing fines of up to £18m or 10% of qualifying worldwide revenue (whichever is greater). In the most serious cases of non-compliance, where there is a continuing failure to comply with the Act, and where appropriate given the risks of harm to individuals in the UK, we can seek a court order to require third parties to take action to disrupt the business of the provider. This may require third parties to withdraw services from, or block access to, a regulated service in the UK.

As such, we have informed the provider of this forum that we would be prepared to make an application to the court for business disruption measures, where appropriate and proportionate, swiftly after the period for making representations on the Provisional Decision has elapsed, if any non-compliance we may identify in our Provisional Decision continues.

We will provide further updates on this investigation as soon as possible.
