    Is the CDU also willing to put their money where their mouth is? We haven’t had one year without some internet service being breached. So, are those politicians going to pay when our real identities are exposed?

    And when they’re at it, how about some actual recourse when you get banned?

      I’m banned from reddit from suggesting that Peter Thiels assets should be liquidated, the man turned to soup.

      The most banal of opinions is now automatically being banned.

        I got 1 bann for saying “the organisation system of the german trains needs to be burned down and rebuild a new on a clean slate” obviousely this is figure of speech. They saw it as call for terrorism.

        And then another ban for saying “Sprich deutsch du hurensohn” which is/was an inside joke in ich-iel and only done there.

        I got a violation, a second one I think, a 3 day ban, at which point I abandon accounts and never log in again, 1 year back, for suggesting Musk be aboard one of his spaceships. That’s it. I guess in the context of them blowing up all the time it’s a call for violence, which is how they labelled it. I quit for a couple of months before starting another account, between them right now too, went through like 4 last year, while I took at least 4 months off.

            I haven’t been on in a month now. But it’s weird, I had cleared cookies dozens of times, looking for links to streaming a show, as search engines are enshitified and no longer provide them, I found a reddit page a couple of times, it looked like I was logged in somehow, anyway a third time I came back to one of their pages, not having logged in, and set up so I had to type my username to log in, its not automatic, I checked and somehow I was logged in.

            For a month? How did that happen? I closed and cleared cookies and checked back and it didn’t log me in automatically.

            How could that possibly have happened? Is it hacked? Was it logged in for a month, despite clearing the cookies like every day?

              In the bad old days where I was forced to make spyware in exchange for a white collar paycheque, we used to make things called “supercookies” that used basically any fingerprint, storage, glitches of a browser to store a token or otherwise identify you with or without identity

              We had something like 98% confidence even if you had no cookies, based on just using JS to eyeball your browser and probing it.

              Not saying its a “supercookie” but the internet is funny like that. The current bleeding edge of it seems to be abusing favicon caches
