That isn't true. I signed up for a fresh account for a project I was working on. Despite following no-one and not having interacted with anything, all I was pushed were racists, bigots, and extremist political content. Oh, and the owne

My London-based solar panels make us (net) self sufficient across the year. They produce about 3,800kWh every year - which is bang on the average home electrical consumption. Even in winter they offset our bills by a decent amount.

Possibly. But given that the font is known, I think plain OCR might be a better bet.
