Australian Government has drafted legislation to fine big tech social media platforms up to 5% of annual revenues if they don’t comply with takedown notices.

Throw in the digital ID requirement they also want to introduce and we might need to build bigger jails to hold all the wrongthinkers! https://nostr.build/av/2c7863bdac018e4fd02a52d10101e160d3870b4ac5b9866fec3ceae93a744b90.mov

Politicians can not help themselves, power hungry cretins with no knowledge or experience who seek to impose on every one and thing around them because they’re convinced of their righteousness.

You’ll be in jail in no time man, keep it up, it means you’re on the right side of history

It is okay if they fine my nostr relay 5% of zero revenues.

Is that what they would try to do with Nostr, fine every relay they can find an "offending" note on?

I doubt this legislation would apply to nostr. But I'd have not read the legislation. Even if it did apply, governments don't go after "little guy" cases unless they want you for some other reason... they make big cases against giant social media companies as a deep-pocket fiat grab under the guise of keeping people safe.

Your terms are acceptable.

Good luck fining #nostr. Fuck them and all other governments. Decentralize everything!

Sounds like Germany. Being a literal thinker has become almost illegal over there.

Germany has gone nuts. All of the efforts to ensure there was never a repeat of Hitler’s Nazis has pretty much ensured you’re going to have a repeat of Hitler’s Nazis to uproot the infestation of leftism there.

Shutting down nuclear plants and backfilling with coal might have been the peak of 🤡🌎

Yeah. I left the country the first time with 19 and travelled the world. Came back, couldn't and didn't want to live my life "that way". Left again and moved to Spain. I literally cannot identify as German. It gives me the creeps.

What do you mean 'bigger jails?' They're already in Austrailia.
