Comment on UK fines Reddit $19 million for using children’s data unlawfully
a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 1 day agoYes, it has been illegal for quite some time. I’m guessing you are on the younger side?
I’m the 90s clicking a link, even one with a legit looking url, could be a rather risky proposition. On slashdot and the like many of us would deliberately avoid many random links unless someone else commented about it first.

Strange. I would have figured you would have known what was going on then.

To be honest it probably did. There’s a whole army of broken heroes behind every social media site whose job it is to block and remove that kind of content. If you didn’t see anything, thank the admins.
The problem with the kinds of people who are into that kind of stuff is that they want to shove it under your nose to make you uncomfortable.

Lol, you don’t understand the internet, good person, but you are the physical embodiment of its current base.
Step 1: Call fraud on a legitimate claim from someone who was there at the time. Step 2: Boast about your long, prolific history on the Internet to establish your credentials. Step 3: Double back because you stayed an a strangely singular lane, and as @paul points out, still avoiding getting it.
Keep on keeping on, I guess.
