There is a lot more blocked than porn and neo-nazis. This will also allow access to sites that block access because of laws: Imgur is not accessible from the uk, nor are a lot of smaller US news sites. Ofcom are after 4 chan too.
Oh no! Not 4chan.
How ever will we Europeans keep up with the latest theories about which celebrities are actually AI influencers.
Sounds like censorship is already becoming normalized in the EU and UK. Terrifying.
First off, the UK isn't in the EU, and 2nd, not a single website is blocked for me here in the Netherlands, quite literally none. I can access Discord without an ID, I can watch all the porn I want, I can pirate anything I want from anywhere etc.
How many states require IDs to go to porn sites, again? How many journos is it now that Trump blacklisted from the White House? Yeah, lotta freedoms over there...

If 4chan is unimportant, why is it being censored?
Amazed to see so many government bootlickers on "hacker" news these days.
Gone are the days of the misfits and pirates and the innovators.
