What happens with cross nation access? Will international sites start to refuse accounts to brits?

I believe lobste.rs is one site that's going to geoblock the UK as a precautionary measure at least

  • I thought that was a tech site, are they hosting porn now? I'd have thought they'd already police hate crimes, encouraging suicide, self-harm, and such?? Perhaps they have a special section where they encourage kids to huff glue?

    • You’re missing the point. The law is so vague and broad that it could be interpreted as covering even far more innocuous content than the few extreme examples you listed here.

    • The 'if they have nothing to hide' argument? Really?

      I look forward to reading your fully compliant risk assessment before interacting with this comment, lest it be judged to contain offensive, inappropriate, or pornographic content.
