Democrats: why won't anyone vote for us?
Also Democrats: let's be like the Republicans, they get so many votes! Let's miss the entire point of democracy and just support large companies!
Because they want the big money donors more than they want to win. Their campaigns are above all designed to bring in money for the high-priced consultants.
This is some fascist (& not at all surprising) shit.
These people were everyone's hope? LMAO 🤣
Cockroaches using the government to make oppressive laws. I think I'm still ancap.
Yes those government movie studios
So it help vpn stocks?
Trump is president and this is their priority?
Why wouldn't it be? People's interests don't bring in money
Of course it is, what else would you expect from the controlled opposition party?
Democrats once again losing on purpose.
Okay.... And that helps anyone how? Where's the other foot? I would like to help? I have a sledge hammer! C'mon don't be shy.
But, I got ideas! How about everyone who files for a patent has to give the Democratic party all their money or how autocorrect wants, all their monkey! That'll show them!
And how about everyone who goes to and graduates from college must serve a 30 year sentence? Fabulous!
Need a car license? Just smash your car on this steel wall! Yey! So easy! So much better than racists!
WTF! Put the thinking cap back on dudes!
Even out of power they still find a way to give hand jobs for industry donations and casually screw the public. I admire their energy.
If they are not blocking the access to the WHO.is servers you can get the IP address of the site and add it to your local hosts file.
Doesn't the IP address change anyway?
Some do and some don't. Even if the IP changes, the actual IP address will be shown on the WHOIS site. Alternatively, I am sure that the actual IP address of these sites is shared by non-American users on forums and other sites.
77 year old who has been in the house since the 90s. Actually a prime example of why we need term limits and real competition in elections (if not from GOP, at least in primaries). Irony is she reps a district that isn't really associated with streaming or producing movies.
My guess? She won her primary because she was the incombent or was unopposed, but she probably receives cash from the film industry. Almost all house seats are uncompetitive unless someone drops out or gets redistricted. Until something changes, this is and will be the way our government continues to work.
in power since the 90s
Oh so carrying the torch for the LAST time they tried to go after media with the moral panic of "Explicit" music label stuff led by Tipper Gore? The one where Twisted Sister showed up in 1985. A continuation from when they had a panic about VHS recordings in 1969 and Mr Rogers testified.
I specially went Obama over Clinton because she was still saying in 2008 how video games promote violence. There's a certain type of Dem, and they're still ramming them down our throats.
I swear. The harder they mess with this type of stuff the more single-issue-voters it pushes to vote against them. This war on media is such a losing battle I don't understand why they're opting to wage it with the current fish on the grill. This kind of unpopular legislation is stuff you try and push when you're in power, and try to sell it as an "eat your veggies" moment. Rebranding while they're down certainly makes for an interesting conversation when they rubber band back into power and say "we've said we were gonna do this since 2025" type conversation.
The country is being burned to the ground from the inside by fascists, and this is the hill Democrat politicians choose to die on?!! Holy shit! What a fucking joke!
The shepherd and the dog might be in agreement.
Corporate dictatorship masquerading as "democracy"
I'm missing the part where consumers are required to use their ISP DNS. I never do, in favour of CloudFlare DNS, Google DNS, etc
Whoever wrote this bill probably lacks the basic network skills to know you can do that.
Democrats: "Please for the love of God, don't vote for us ever again! We really, really don't want to win."
Lemmy: "Fuck that, I'll vote blue no matter who. You can't tell me what to do"
Democrats:
D E M O C R A T singular, one. Not democrats. For fucks sake it's on the bloody title!
Why are people so willfully ignorant?
US Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) today proposed ...
Cause people fail to awknowledge there is more to politics than just left and right, or progressive and conservative, etc.
Really uh...
Setting themselves up for success uh..
Great to see our representatives finally focusing on the real issues in these difficult times.
Shit birds. Hail the all important corporation. The line must move up. Hail the line.
Lofgren is a corporate stooge is the message I'm getting.
This is some dumb shit.
invest in VPN providers
I'm guessing lofgren has already done that
Wait until they start "the VPN wars". it's invariable at this point. Only the VPN that has bribed The Emperor the most will survive.
This somehow reads with the same energy as those "please don't download scientific papers for free from , that would be so terrible" posts.
Article 1) Streaming prices going up Article 2) websites being blocked
oh cool, tackling the key issues facing us right now
After the US does this, Europe will be soon to follow guaranteed, then everyone will be trying to pipe through the same VPN exit server in Barbados
We already have site blocking in France.
