Comment on UK households could face VPN 'ban' after use skyrockets following Online Safety Bill
UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 1 day agoIt obviously caused problems and pushed the market underground but it seems to have worked out.
Worked out is people dieing from tainted drugs of a unknown potency? Youre a fucking monster.

Hey now, that’s a lot of animosity for a statement that doesn’t do much to make a good point.
The original question was
I posited a conjecture based guess with some basic reasoning and as i said , it was opinion more than provable fact.
By “worked out” i meant the overall situation is better after the ban, despite the negative consequences.
It seems that was lost on you, but now you know.
So let’s address your reasoning, such as it is.
People died from tainted drugs before the ban, probably a lot from tainted drugs of the type in the ban.
Unless you have any evidence those numbers changed significantly after the ban, I’ll chalk that up to your opinion.
Not a very reasonable one to my eyes, but such are angry people on the internet.
I was not aware i needed to provide an example of a ban that resulted in everything being completely fixed after the fact (mainly because that’s not how the question was worded) but if that was, in fact, the requirement, my bad.
If I’m a monster (in your opinion) because i think the reduction in access to terribly addictive drugs might have overall brought down fatalities and other negative consequences, then i can live with that.
