Oh. Can you elaborate please?

I hadn't heard of genp until that post, but since they're pirates, they're welcome on dbzer0, the instance for pirates and anarchists.

Yeah me neither.

But like you say all are welcome and where my confusion lies in having a separate community, for GenP peeps?

Ain't we all sailing the high seas ,🤔

Seems a bit odd needing a label of what I take it as "Generation Piracy"?

Maybe I'm getting old, but it seems completely redundant and a stickied post with all the popcorn might be a better route.

Arrr

Go on then, I'll bite.

What's this ~~instance~~ community offer other than a different name?

[–] ladfrombrad 3 points 7 months ago

Yeah like you I was an avid reporter to r/BotBust which when its owner went off the rails one of the team members then setup BotDefense, and I got recruited to resolve the reports from peeps like yourself and our little counterpart bot that flagged them at a fair old rate.

I ain't seen nothing like BD over here on Lemmy and some of the bot accounts here are at least listed as such but I have seen numerous ones that aren't "self labelled". It'd take a fair amount of effort but if you've got enough people to review reports (especially the ones from humans) I can't see why not as it's basically looking for common markers / traits / flags.

Indeed and it's exactly what we did in r/BotDefense before greedy piggy spez shut down the API/communities some built.

I used to watch in amazement at some of the guys who set up bots, to report the bots to us.

So say we have an open WiFi guest network at work that's got the general nanny filter on for "bad things in the UK workplace".

But say I brought and plugged in an old phone and started an i2p instance even thou it's going to be heavily firewalled, you reckon it would still help out?

Also, no need to mutter about i2p and I think with this current climate it's a sensible thing to start help out with

Yeah like someone said in the YT comments it's got more layers than an onion, and kinda reminds me of the end mix of Mikey B's 2001 cd

Really dreamy but banging.

The project supports more than 135 highly skilled jobs across the UK

Is that 135 individual positions, or just some mumbo jumbo job titles they're making up?

The UK police can't determine what is a legal 249gm drone or not as seen many times over with the auditors, so how on earth is this thing gonna work is beyond me?

Just trash the airwaves I guess.

The law also makes it mandatory to use a third-party age assurance provider “that is legally and technically independent of any online platform hosting or providing porn content.”

Meanwhile, over on Googles I can find images of blowjobs and corner shop magazines available for viewing. Strange how they want to invade everyone's privacy in the name of some "online porn".

This kid-friendly something where rules are more strictly enforced and moderation could end up with the kid's school being told about the kid saying the N word or whatever

I remember entering an incorrect domain/regex to an Automod config once. Thankfully because I checked the logs often it only happened for a short while, and people didn't get too mad.

But then you have really incompetent operators like those censors over in Italy and Spain with PiracyShield™ etc

I mean - 30mins for them to block Google Drive nationwide is something I think no-one wants, without some level of accountability, but when you've got dickheads like me that can regex out Nigella Lawson Pr0n accidentally, is scary.

My backup phone / last daily driver had one, and I did use a SD card in it simply for another place to backup my DCIM folder as part of my 3.2.1 backup, but I did always wonder why I bothered because if I did lose the phone the SD card goes with it, making it pretty moot.

Still, I am of the notion that there's never enough backups.
