Hey Guest,
We will never comply with any of OFCOM's demands or any other nations censorious demands for that matter. We will only follow the laws of the land of which our server is located, which is the US.
Any demands for censorship or requests to comply with the law outside of the US will be promptly ignored.
No foreign laws or pressure will make us comply with anti-censorship laws and we will protect the speech of our members, regardless of where they might live in the world. If that means being blocked in the UK, so be it. We would advise that any UK member gets a VPN to browse the site, or use TOR.
However, today, we stand up these these governments that want to bully or censor this website.
Fuck OFCOM, and fuck any media organization or group that think it's cool or fun to stalk or bully people that suffering in this world.
Edit: We also wanted to address the veiled threats made against a staff member in the UK by the BBC in the news today. We are undeterred by any threats, intimination, by the BBC or by any other groups dedicated to doxxing and harassing our staff and members. Journalists from the BBC, CTV, Kansas Star, Daily Mail and many other outlets have continuiously ignored the fact that many of the people that they're interviewing (such as @leelfc84 on Twitter/X) and propping up are the same people posting addresses of staff members and our founders on social media. We show them proof of this and they ignore it and don't address it.They're all just as evil as each other, and should be treated accordingly. They do not care about the safety of our staff members, founders, or administrators, or even members, so why would they care about you?
Now that we have your attention, journalists, will you ever address this? You've given these evil people interviews, and free press.
I have looked for the past week, I was on the site for about a week before deciding to become a member. I have chosen SN as my method because it is the most achievable for me. I have decided to CTB due to not being able to recover, I can't deal with the torment of life any longer. I don't plan to do this impulsively as I want to be sure I am making the right decision. Yeah I read the SN guide and I found it super helpful. I have also read the rules. Thanks for your response!
