I still post stuff via text-links example.
But this censorship gets crazier each day.

If it combines with censorship at provider-level, we will need special tools to get unbiased news that is not propaganda.

We may need to send DVDs around again, like in the beginning days of warez.

The sneaker net is actually a cool concept. You would have update nodes at gas stations and parks and you would bring a thumb drive. When you plug it in it automatically updates your drive and you automatically update the node. As people go to multiple nodes the information moves with them.

Time to start embedding USB drives with info on them into brick walls.

    It was an example and joke at the same time. ;-)

    Twitter Goes Full Orwell, Censors All Topics "Likely To Be Subject To Election Misinformation"

    How does \r\conspiracy even exist on Reddit?

    Must be really watered down.

    It helps them to calibrate their censorship algorithms, and corrals dissenting voices into one sub.

    [–]goobandit 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    I was thinking about that today because I saw a bunch of comments that just said “link?”

    [–]Extract 10 insightful - 2 fun10 insightful - 1 fun11 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

    It serves both as a honeypot for those posting actual conspiracies (those posts will be quickly removed, the posters blacklisted by Reddit) and an artificial place to show normies how "all conspiracies are crazy" (since those are the only ones allowed to stay up).

    Kind of like the worst, possible false flag pro-trump comments will be allowed to stay up on subs like /r/politics (but heavily brigaded, of course), but actual well informed comments refuting their points get censored.

    They did remove u/JamesColePardon who was one of the best mods on the site.

    [–]HibikiBlack 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

    Also, /u/Flytape (who got tired of all the BS), /u/RecoveringGrace and /u/aleister. Magnora himself was kept from becoming a mod and other rather popular users, were banned from r/conspiracy like RMFN. I've had to deal with several suspension attempts etc.. I don't know to what degree has the mod group been corrupted but I can't say I trust them.

    Look through the amount of censorship there, its a completely 'dictated' sub. Since 2y ago.

    [–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    Not to mention the current mods there are complete douchebags. The top mod u/Axolotl_Peyotl literally colluded with the admins to get u/Flytape and other mods removed from r/conspiracy. u/Axolotl_Peyotl constantly complains about Reddit's censorship, but is the most censor-happy mod I have ever seen on that sub. He only applies the rules if its about something he personally disagrees with, its getting to the point where the mods will pretty much remove any comment or post that criticizes them or the sub. What a bunch of pricks.

    I just got permanently banned from Reddit for answering a AskReddit question that said "If you can kill anyone & get away with it, who would it be?" & I answered Mark Zuckerberg and within 10 whole-ass seconds, the page refreshed and i got a little red box saying I'm banned from the site.

    Something very big is coming indeed. I get suspended for speaking the truth and I just keeping making new accounts to repeat the process. Today I made a new account and haven’t commented on anything just so I’ll be ready to stir shit up on election night and somehow my account was banned again. It was hours old with no comments and they banned it, something is definitely up.

    The IP address you registered with, and the IP address you use to access the website are logged in the database. Use a different IP address if you want to be completely unknown upon registration.

    Also browser fingerprinting.

    [–]C3P0 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

    That's jargon for cookies stored in the browser.

    [–]bazuka 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

    Not just cookies, browser program and version, installed extensions and other stuff I can not recollect. But overall it did a good job of fingerprinting. There was a website that tested if your setup would be easily fingerprinted but can't remember the url, perhaps someone in here can help.

    [–]C3P0 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

    browser program and version

    From the PHP function get_browser() and $_SERVER variable.

    installed extensions and other stuff

    What function in any backend programming language retrieves installed extensions? A user could install a thousand extensions. In order for that information to retrieved by the server, it has to be sent by the client. The client would potentially have to send millions of bytes of information on installed extensions--good luck on mobile sneaking that past the client, even if you could.

    "Browser fingerprinting" is limited to cookies and some vague information about the capabilities of their browser.

    The website doesn't work for me. I quit after 10 seconds of loading.

    [–]Dr_Bukkake 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    Oh I know how they are figuring it out but it used to be they didn’t shut me down until I made a comment they didn’t like but now they got me before I even said anything and that never happened before.

    [–]CarlDung 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

    could they issue hardware ban?

    [–]C3P0 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    No. They could store some cookies, store what browser you are using, but that's about it. If I missed anything, let me know.

    I’ve never heard of this site before and looked them up. It doesn’t look very controversial at all. Why ban it?

    [–]PATGUI 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

    Are you serious? Zerohedge was banned from Twitter because they posted a story about the virus being a bioweapon. They run controversial stories all the time because they are a contarian news outlet. BTW I think they are banned in NZ (because of the reporting of the mosque mass shooting) and Australia.

    Zerohedge was banned from Twitter because they posted a story about the virus being a bioweapon.

    Worst Bioweapon ever.

    You need to take a test to find out you are "infected".

      Remember, half the country is trying to fight off the leftism. But yeah most of the major institutions have been compromised by the left. the previous generation didn't listen to Yuri.

      Right, left, center it's all the same..

      [–]horatioherbert 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

      Are they? Quite a misrepresentation when the left is demanding Cultural Marxism using mobs of BLM/ATNIFA and there are no rioting by Right-wing White Supremacists when White children are murdered by Blacks or Police

      littleboyblue is so boring he posts the same shit in multiple places.

      /u/magnora7 is there any way to address this kind of content spamming.? There's a few users who do it, copy pasting the same comment shit everywhere

      is it related to TheAmeliaMay? they seemed to tag team in an unusual way

      [–]magnora7 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

      not that I can tell. The spam account does keep coming back though, and uses vpns to bypass bans

      There was a human at the tiller, so its not fully automated. He/She even pm'd me. (asking to be unbanned, for some reason)

        They link google, facebook, twitter getting wrecked by the Cruz missile. The (R) before him requests a list of newpapers (new sites?) censored by facebook/twitter. Hmm...
