What's he going to do if they say no? Make the great firewall of Britain even bigger?

Actually charge them the threatened £ millions or percentage in the online safety act that closed, exiled or scared so many small forums, perhaps?

Sure, but after the court sends them the bill then what? Wouldn't we have to invade America to enforce it?

Take it off the money they hold in or try to transfer out of the UK, same as some other criminal enterprises. They sell ads and subs here.

There's enough pressure from European countries at this point regarding age verification, algo manipulation and more that soon it's gonna be more like the American containment zone rather than a great firewall of anywhere

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
