What mods, though?
Comment on Nexus Mods to Enforce Digital ID Age Checks Under UK and EU Laws
FreedomAdvocate@lemmy.net.au 1 week agoI guess you haven’t been paying attention to them nuking and banning mods that they don’t like ideologically then?

The best example are the ones that replace “Type 1 / Type 2” with “Male / Female” in games where you create a character. Banned. Another is the one that simply replaced all the pride flags with american flags in Spider-Man. Banned.

I love seeing conservative snowflakes complaining about censorship when it’s literally the most stupid small changes, you make it sound like the game is unplayable because it’s acknowledges/supports minorities in non-impactful ways.
But no mention of the games and mods that let you play out genocide/rape.
It’s the pride flags that are the problem. /s

Way to miss the point. The point is that mods as trivial as the ones I said in single player games were banned because the owner didn’t like them, while the owner allowed the mods like you mentioned.

Oh so they came to their senses because of the backlash over their pathetic banning of this mod? That’s something at least, but they won’t be getting any praise from me until they stop banning things like this in the first place.

Honestly not noticed that because I just don’t give a shit. It’s a pride flag, surely it isn’t going to hurt even the most delicate snowflake.

So surely someone playing on their pc with American flags instead of pride flags isn’t going to hurt even the most delicate snowflake?

You are moving the goalpost now, we know, but this is compliance, they either implement this, or blacklist the entire UK from accessing the site.

Which would be particularly wild given that nexus mods is run by a British company.

Iirc only the UK law is actually binding, the EU, for now, got only guidelines, source Trust me Bro because its early and I feel not like doing research

I’m just saying, I bet they couldn’t wait to implement this. They’ll likely roll it out worldwide soon enough even when not forced to.
