Regarding the apparent and imminent repeal of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act and the future of this website.

[Big Bad Wart]

On one hand I'm sad it might be over on the other I know trump is such a major fuck up there is a chance he will ruin it even with bipartisan support.

I'll migrate to is maybe 4chan if that site is still around.

at that point I might as well migrate to Discord.

 

[Jack Awful]

theyll probably be banned to prevent platform lawsuits before they can gloat

If Trump and his supporters cause 230 to be repealed, I'd be most happy if Twitter and Facebook responded by banning all Trump supporters, making their platforms into leftist echo chambers, and all alternatives were forcibly shut down by the government.

It won't happen.

But if it does @Null send lowtax an offer to buy from you, lol.

And I thought the election threads were filled with doomposting.

Nah the election threads had other forms of autism like "REEEEEEEEEEEEE AUTIST STICKERS", "COPE COPE COPE", "THE CIVIL WAR IS TOTALLY GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN" and "TRUMP ALWAYS WINS MAGA MAGA!"

 

[Andrew Neiman]

Where will the kiwi refugees go if this happens?

We've GOT to have somewhere to mock Russell Greer. This is a necessity.

 

[Pissmaster]

Guess I'll get banned at every single other forum and social media site I have an account on because nobody is gonna stop me from shitposting

 

[Balthier]

The Farms going down, Metokur slowly dying...my terrible taste in internet entertainment is finally put out to pasture. I'll miss it though. Thanks for all the hard work, Josh.

All I have to say is I don't want to keep in touch with any of you.

 

[Mushroom Soup]

But....i love u guys......

Also I know null wouldn't like it, but I'm sure most of us could tolerate shitty porn Evony banner ads if it meant the site survived.

And I thought the election threads were filled with doomposting.

Yeah, like holy shit. No one is going to try and pass this, there's too much at risk .

 

[Superman93's Bitch]

@Null You mentioned in the past that you would go full ghost mode and just disappear off the internet. Are you still committed to that?

 

[Sinner's Sandwich]

This is it then??

Goodbye everyone.

 

[Chiri]

Even if this full repeal doesn't go through I'm not too optimistic about the future of 230. I can only imagine what Biden and Harris want to do to it.

 

[aediot]

This might just be the most ass thing to ever happen to the net if it passes.

Encyclopedia Dramatica will likely follow the exact same order as kiwifarms.

The only solutions to this are to hand the site over to a foreigner.

And let's face it there aren't many of those who could handle the level of autism and work that platforms like these require.

Infuriating.

 

[Dark Edea]

Fuck yeah!

i mean fuck theyll be forced to, cant have some moron saying corona virus isnt a real virus and to inject bleach into yourself anymore you ban them or youre responsible for that shit, itll backfire so hard on people who think theyre owning the libs

Private Discord servers, probably, but I'm wondering if those would also be liable to lawsuits, and if Discord would be more hands on in moderating private servers.

He tried it but nobody clicked on them

 

[chimpSculpture]

You're free now Null

4chan isn't 4chan anymore. The jannies actually ban you for being edgy now.

Yeah, I heard many old 4chan users call it "redditchan" and some even went to some forums like this (or discord).
I miss internet 1.0/2.0, this 2.5/3.0 looks like shit (or communist utopia if you're 14) -- The Onion is most likely the future, lmao. Onion youtube when?

Hammer&Chisel (the original Discord devs) weren't exactly known to be fans of privacy tbh.
