So, due to the recent enactment of the UK’s Online Safety act, we maybe forced to not serve any content to the citizens of UK (accessing from UK) if our AI determines that the content is unsafe or unscannable. It may also impact AU in the near future if people of AU will allow their government to continue on the current course. Don’t blame the messenger, the fines are ridiculous and impossible to fight. Alternative is similarly ridiculous, scanning your face by some third party to verify your age.

Seems like a pain in the ass. Glad I live in the USA and we're well armed to keep the government in check. It's up to the NAZI's in the UK to block traffic if they've gone wacko. The world does not need to respond to psychopathic behavior other than what was done to Germany in during WW2.

To block UK ASNs, you would need to identify and list the ASNs that are registered within the United Kingdom. This process involves using the information from Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) and potentially leveraging databases that catalog ASNs by region.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to approach blocking UK ASNs:

Identify Relevant RIR: The UK falls under the jurisdiction of the RIPE NCC (Réseaux IP Européens Network Coordination Centre), which is the Regional Internet Registry responsible for Europe, the Middle East, and parts of Central Asia 1•2•3

Access RIPE NCC Database: Use the RIPE NCC's public database to search for ASNs registered in the UK. This database contains detailed information about IP addresses and AS numbers originally allocated to members by the RIPE NCC 1•2•3

Filter by Country: Within the RIPE NCC database, you can filter ASNs by country. Look for ASNs assigned to organizations based in the UK. This can be done through the RIPEstat tool, which provides information about IP address space, AS numbers, and related details for hostnames and countries 1•2•3

List UK ASNs: Compile a list of all ASNs that are registered to UK-based organizations. This list will serve as your target for blocking.

Implement Blocking: Depending on your network configuration, you can implement the blocking of these ASNs at the router or firewall level. This involves configuring your network devices to deny traffic from the specified ASNs.

Monitor and Update: Regularly monitor the list of UK ASNs, as new ASNs may be assigned over time. Update your blocking rules accordingly to ensure continued effectiveness.

Use ASN Lookup Tools: Utilize online tools such as HackerTarget's ASN lookup service to verify and cross-reference the ASNs you plan to block. These tools can provide additional details about the ASNs, including the organization they belong to, which can help in confirming their UK-based status 4

By following these steps, you can effectively block UK ASNs from your network, ensuring that traffic from these autonomous systems is denied. Keep in mind that this process requires ongoing maintenance to account for any changes in ASN assignments within the UK.

May be well armed but I doubt one in a thousand who have guns have the training and backbone to stand up against tyranny. Was in US for Covid Insanity. Most everyone just went along. And that was the greatest loss of real freedom in American history.

LOL, A friend and I put 120,000 miles on one of my cars during "lockdown" in the USA. We never had issues finding motels. The roads were empty and life was free. During that time, I observed all the highway cameras being installed while people were afraid to go outside. There were many that protested the lockdowns, but it was banned from the "news" and social media. People in the USA saw how an old man with dementia was used to try to roll in censorship. It's been reversed, but each generation has the responsibility to maintain it. The younger generation in the USA is disgusted with what happened and keep aware of the reality and find their own information to stay away from the deceivers.

It has not been reversed and it was Donald Trump during his first term, not Biden.

But hey, when you are a pedophile you just make up lies as an excuse to support Trump...

I was amazed to see a covid protest in the US. Cops stood against protesters armed with semi automatic rifles.

I know this was rare in the US and most parts of US u doryiantely fell into line just like rest of the world.

Here in the UK we've have had anti immigration protests, cops brutally took down peaceful protesters using the most cruel violence I've ever seen, disgusting. UK police have been responsible for inciting violence at peaceful protests

Last year peaceful protestors given 2 year prison sentences. Judge actually admitted you've done nothing wrong but because you were present you will be given a prison sentence. I can't find the videos, seems like the videos have now been taken down. These were official videos which were streamed live by the courts to make example of protesters.

Makes me think we need US style rights to bear arms in the UK to protect ourselves from Stalin Starmers UK government and their brutal UK police force.

Lol you're a fool.

Glad you live in USA hahahaha

Texas already has this in place.

Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg lobbied the Texas state government to implement this ALREADY.

Texas was literally the first, before UK Australia Canada or EU
