An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.
What did he say and ask you? What's with all of these visits being conducted at between 1am-4am in the morning? They're getting people out of bed . It's a real intrusion.
The address I use as a mailing address is my friend's place, since I move around a lot. So the cop car went up and down my friend's street with a flashlight looking at addresses, getting everyone's attention. So he talks to my friend at the door and asks his relation to me. My friend replies that we are friends. So the officer told him why he was there, that it was regarding something I ordered online. Not sure if he told my friend what it was exactly since I refuse to discuss it with him. The cop then met me halfway into town (I'm 20 min out of town). He referred to the SN as a 'suicide kit'. He asked what was going on and if he could help. I sarcastically asked if he could fix the housing crisis, or the broken medical system or if he could pay my thousands in debts. He said he was sorry that he couldn't help. I tried to make it sound like I had all kinds of supports & that I'm trying to help myself to avoid getting hospitalized. Reality is, I am so done and so way beyond help.

someone i know reposted a self-righteous infographic about SN and the police statement about "packages of lethal substances are being shipped to people who are at risk of harming themselves"
Yeah. Since the hype of the site (me included), police have been operating welfare checks on those who purchase sn and anything else of the sort that aids in helping you ctb. Hearsay says it's been well over 100 so far

Although Mississauga man Kenneth Law currently faces criminal charges for allegedly selling sodium nitrite and other lethal supplies for the purpose of self-harm, one issue that remains unresolved is the manner through which many of Law’s alleged customers appear to have found him and his...
Yes. Now you have to walk around London with valuables visible and hope you get murdered for them. Or maybe try going into an NHS hospital and catching some bug. But yeah, seriously, it's over.
