    Alright, everyone with access to your parents’ routers has an obligation to go in and block twitter.com/x.com along with Facebook, Fox News, whatever other insanity boomers are consuming

    We may unironically need to create “anti boomer reactionary” blocklists. Similar to those lists that block porn sites on a network, but just a list of boomer brainrot sites.

      Nice, boomers are terrible with technology and will just think it’s the website’s problem. Unfortunately blocking it on their phones will be harder if they leave the house enough to figure out that they can turn off the wifi to get their sites back.

        Definitely harder, but many cell companies now let you block domains online. Usually under like a child safety section. If you can’t do that, ask them to let you use their phone for something and on iOS you can turn on the block porn domains and then add custom domains. If that doesn’t work you can install something like adguard and just add the domains. Pretty sure Android has similar options and even more third party app options

        If you really want to fuck with them you could semi randomize days and blocks of time when certain sites work. You could probably block whatever subdomain(s) twitter uses for video content so the website loads for them like 20% of the time and videos never load. Lots of potential for gaslighting diabolical shit here (but for good! I promise)

      Everyone with access to INTERNET CORE ROUTERS has an obligation to DROP ALL TRAFFIC

      dumpster-fire: Hi, I have a route to 0.0.0.0/32 - 255.255.255.255/32

      We need to shut this thing down until we can figure what’s going on
