Gab cries foul as Pennsylvania attorney general subpoenas DNS provider
- olliej 8y agoI hate gab with a passion, but I can’t see any obvious way that this could conceivably be valid - gab hasn’t violated any actual laws, nor is it accused of such. Simply being a social network for racists, homophobes, and anti-America nazis is not a crime. Nor should it be, i’d Like to be able to know if someone is a user - but mostly as a “are these people dangerous” check.
- Karunamon 8y agoHi, user here because I’m not about to let someone squat on my globally-unique username. That, and with a couple of filters, it amounts to Twitter with a nicer UX. Go ahead and add me to the “dangerous person” list then?
- olliej 8y agoDo you actually use it though?
- Karunamon 8y agoWith aforementioned filters, yes. The idea of a social network with freedom of speech guaranteed at the platform level is interesting to me. If someone is saying something I don't like, I merely need mute them or the topic they're speaking about.
