Reminds me of the movie, Demolition Man. Republicans tried so hard to paint liberals and leftists as censorial authoritarians.

“Can I say that immigrants are poisoning the blood of America?”

“You betcha!”

“Can I say that people who worship unjust law enforcement are malicious sycophants?”

“No. That’s harassment.”

Sieg Heil, I guess?

Holy crap. That’s all it takes now? It used to require a believable threat, if memory serves. They’re like this close to having FCC-style broadcast TV censorship.

I left with the API fiasco before I got banned. Should I log back in for a ban?

I’m not sure what’s funnier, the whining of these self-entitled business associations, the corruption exacted by FIFA, or the fact that they spent so much time fighting over who gets to shake down football fans that the fans just got up and left.

Sincere but possibly stupid question: what keeps people from joining a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing access as a proxy? Businesses have accounts for all kinds of services for the use of their constituents.

They were never going to just pack up and leave. If the Plan A direct coup doesn’t work, they’ll still have the Plan B of infested IT infrastructure.
