I somewhat disagree with your statement of “we have to comply with it even if we disagree with it”. You aren’t being lorded over by government officials

I think you may be mixing up which topic you’re in. This is about the UK Ofcom Online Safety Act. If we do not comply we face serious fines and the potential removal of our service from the UK.

The UK does not rule the world? Let them block it. People can use VPNs.

You would be one-hundred percent correct in your assumption. I apologize.  I saw you posting the UK link but felt as if it had no place for me to look at as I am in the US. I saw the first post posting a petition and thought you and he were just posting links to discuss a UK petition  for the government to step in like the 2 US ones I signed, and didn't realize it was VERSUS the government.  Wow, so it effects me even though I'm not there. This BS has escalated way beyond what our news and media have been covering. Man, I knew you were in a tough spot, but the fact of the matter is way beyond what I thought; especially after reading the post below by another user detailing the rules stating even mentioning eating disorders is a violation. This entire world is F-ed due to people with money trying to press their views on those without. Just because they want to shelter topics that are negative will not make them go away, it just builds weaker people and less awareness, making for more easily offended people and worse issues because people don't know how to cope with the things that are no longer discussed.


Edit: Okay, I just read the link you provided. I have to say I am sick of this sexist BS where everyone only lists females  as victims. In this link "Protecting women and girls" or of course because CS is feminist theirs is "objectification of women". That is all I see everywhere in media, and it always enrages me. I'm a guy and got objectified CONSTANTLY in my youth! I've also had someone attempt to rape me when I was in my late twenties. But no one seems to F-ing care about the male population and want to act as if it is EXCLUSIVELY females that have these things happening to them. As if men are the sole villains.

Male assault (that is to say, Males being assaulted by women, or possibly by anyone) is one of, if not *the* most underdiscussed and openly demeaned topics on the planet.
At a certain point regardless, it's not about the topics they claim, they just want to use sympathy for those valid issues, twisted to meet their own purposes - as has always been the case for hundreds of years
