Afraid to learn something you didn't before? Such a silly attitude!

it’s sometimes hard to remember there are people who take that view.

Many people have this view. Us on the Fedi are unique in that we don't, or didn't before the mass Twitter émigré occurred.

this guy is 100% committed to give nazis a platform, right?

I think you mean — speech you don't like. Where do you draw the line?

Well, literal Nazis would be a good start.

The problem is that most of the blocking is simply because people don't like the speech. This is a huge concern for any liberal democracy. Free speech is a right, and that means speech that one doesn't necessarily like!

Not correct. It's a human right regardless whether you believe it or not. https://www.un.org/en/chronicle/article/freedom-expression-fundamental-human-right#:~:text=Freedom%20of%20expression%20is%20a,Universal%20Declaration%20of%20Human%20Rights.

Just because America doesn't allow free speech on their social applications doesn't make it right. Pull your head out of your arse. Yelling fire when there isn't a fire isn't an example of free speech you moron! We're talking about political free speech.

Well, any social media company has to follow local laws … Blocks only affect the country FWIU. A general opinion, not specifically for Blue Sky. I haven't followed the fight between Musk and the Brazilian government, so cannot comment on that.

Isn't ClamTK a GUI to ClamAV if I remember correctly?

Yet you use Javascript if you use a web browser. People need to separate personal life from the work or professional one.

Totally agree. Started with the Me-Too movement where we saw people accused and convicted without due process. It seemed to spin out of the Jian Gnomeshi acquittal.

About time, Samsung watches have had that capability on Pixel for some time.

Have you upgraded?

BTW The BRAVE browser has built in tracking prevention without requiring extension overhead. Works better by default in my experience than either of the two mentioned in the post. YMMV though.
