@Gargron @alienated The thing is I’m not banned or blocked from any of the big tech platforms, I’m simply disgusted with their censorship and want to support other free and more decentralized alt-tech platforms. For Eugen (an admin no less) to so flippantly dismiss new members because they believe in *gasp* a free internet makes no sense on a platform that promotes itself to be an alternative to the centralized big tech corporations. Is this the best mastodon has to offer?

When did tech companies start having "trust and safety" teams?

I feel like there's something icky about a part of corporation being in charge of some vaguely defined "trust".

Disassociation allowed.

I really hope the UK ISP Association's Internet Villain award is an actual physical award and someone from Mozilla shows up to pick it up, if they win.

"Surveillance scoring" is a commonly used computer algorithm practice that can cause some customers to be charged more for products &/or be used to deny housing/employment.

@dellcam says experts are calling this behavior illegal & are fighting to end it: gizmodo.com/the-surveillance-s
