Why did you frame this data discussing Israel? Almost all of these deals were to support Ukraine’s defense via Poland.

I’ve certainly seen and heard of Google modifying results or puting punishments on users because they broach topics that violate their terms of service.

I will absolutely agree that the rules of their ToS are heavily determined by the desires of advertisers and written laws.

But just because they may restrict the content based off of advertiser’s wishes or because they are legally required to do so doesn’t mean that Google is in bed with the government and willing to do anything to prop up the government’s power so they can keep making money from them.

That’s a really big and important jump you can’t just hand wave away just because a company as large as Google works with the government on some things. That’s just conspiracy theory and detracts from the very real, evidence based criticisms we can and should be focusing on.

In order to make a claim like that you need two different evidences: one showing that they did remove content critical of the US and one showing that they removed it because they intended to use the removal to make more money

Just because they’ve done some things wrong doesn’t mean they have done everything that’s wrong. I would rather base my criticism on companies (or people or ideas) on true facts.

That means sometimes there’s an uncomfortable situation where an otherwise evil organization isn’t always evil in every situation, and that is ok.

Would Coles paying their staff more prevent non employees from stealing?

This is a real genuine question. Can you link me to some peer reviewed studies from a reputable source? I can’t find any that say trans women have zero advantage over cis women in physical sports.

Yeah it’s not like there were any big events in the meantime. Certainly not two elections of very different presidents or a whole global pandemic. Certainly nothing crazy that could change the data in one way or the other

What do you mean by “copy” a subreddit? Do you mean you want to keep all of the posts ever submitted to the subreddit? What any comments?

Clicking the delete button on the website just makes your browser send API calls (albeit maybe a different, private API than other scripts may use)

Maybe some malicious compliance is needed? If the moderators keep active in their private communities, it would meet the requirements of code of conduct.

I don’t think those numbers are accurate at all, so you have any stats to back that up?

Thank you for linking the text. For anyone wondering, here is Ch. 2, Article 11 regarding portable battery replacement:

Article 11 Removability and replaceability of portable batteries

1. Portable batteries incorporated in appliances shall be readily removable and replaceable by the end-user or by independent operators during the lifetime of the appliance, if the batteries have a shorter lifetime than the appliance, or at the latest at the end of the lifetime of the appliance. A battery is readily replaceable where, after its removal from an appliance, it can be substituted by a similar battery, without affecting the functioning or the performance of that appliance.
2. The obligations set out in paragraph 1 shall not apply where (a) continuity of power supply is necessary and a permanent connection between the appliance and the portable battery is required for safety, performance, medical or data integrity reasons; or (b) the functioning of the battery is only possible when the battery is integrated into the structure of the appliance.
3. The Commission shall adopt guidance to facilitate harmonised application of the derogations set out in paragraph 2

If this was a way mods would actually protest, wouldn’t it make sense to say who is saying it? They removed all attribution, all indication of votes, or any example of a subreddit actually doing it. Maybe I’m jaded from my many years on reddit, but I always get suspicious when I see a post like this that it could be a fake post or something.

With that said, if moderators actually did set their subs, like /r/aww to nsfw, that would be pretty funny.

Not wanting to link to reddit makes sense.

Though I would say, I would take something more seriously if a Reddit admin or a mod from a dozen subreddits said it. That would add lot more significance to a post like this. If it was from a highly upvoted post, then it’s be more likely a form of protest that reddit mods might have seen or even decide to take seriously.

When I don’t see any attribution I can’t help but think it’s just OP faking a post or just trying to get attention for themselves instead of just posting a text post to discuss the idea. Maybe I’m just jaded from my days on reddit though.

What’s up with people posting screenshots of text here? Are these screenshots of things random no name redditors are saying on reddit? Are these pictures of posts that are getting tons of upvotes or significant in any sort of way?

It looks like people’s comments are coming back because they didn’t get deleted. From discussion in other threads and on HN, it looks like the comment deletion scripts can’t delete comments from subreddits while they are privated.

If you tried deleting comments during the blackout and then some of those unprivated, you would expect to see those comments again.

There is a lot to be upset with Reddit about, but this doesn’t seem to be one of them. (at least based on what I’ve seen)
