  Still a pretty big hurdle for most bots that just aimlessly flow through the webs trying to sign up for things. I don't think anyone will bother tailoring their bot for europe.pub.

  Putting the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy between the question and the answer field might further confuse LLM outputs. :)

  "I left this gigantic capitalist American monolith and the alternative I found was full of leftists! "

  Well, duh.

  Obligatory fuck tankies.

  Oh yeah, it seems like half the posts I made on reddit in the end were shadow banned, and I'm not even sure what I did wrong. At least here when your shit is deleted you know about it.

  I'm not here to suffer fools.

  And bans come cheap because they're on an instance level. Go out and find yourself a place where you belong. If it turns out the people you'd like to talk to don't like you back, maybe recalibrate.

  Yeah, there's no guarantees against stupidity in the member states. That's easier to reverse than if it happens in an EU regulation.

  This kind of misinformation is why people vote for right wing eurosceptic parties, which ironically tends to be the parties most eager to strip people's rights away.

  What exactly do you think a Commission blueprint is?

  It's nothing but soft power and hardly even that, little more than just thinking out loud. It has no implications whatsoever unless member states decide they want to implement the ideas nationally, in which case it's on them. The Commission cannot implement EU law unilaterally.

  As for chat contol, that's about banning true encryption. Very different from regulating big tech.

  I wpuld like to know whoch EU law it is they are takling about, aa they proclaim pretty boldly that the Union is adapting "similar Regulations". I follow EU politics somewhat closely and I have no idea what they are talking about.

  The Commission has published some guidelines and recommendations, which are as legally binding as a fart.

  Are you talking about chat control?

  It was rejected once, and will be rejected again. At least if people mobilize a bit against it. There's a long way from Commission proposal to law.

  Equating the proposal of a law with the adaptation of it is highly misleading. The EU is a complex institution where different bodies are pulling in different directions.
