Idea: Governments maintain a list of entities that are evading the law like that, and then doesn't prosecute people who are accused of crimes against such entities. The idea being that if you place yourself outside of the law's reach, you also place yourself outside of the law's protection.

the utility of the nation/state has been broken by 21st century meta-national billionaires

unions are useful but they no longer cover the distance between labor and capital

Of course it has. It says everything you need to know

Maybe they should be investigated for all the child porn they used to host and the TD contributions to the riots

To this day, I still can't believe how long Reddit defended underage porn subreddits. Literally do nothing and say "free speech" . Then suddenly a news article happens and then they finally take action.

It’s almost like spez cares more about money than any kind of moral grandstanding, which of course is super weird for a capitalist

A censorship promoting platform flees censorship?

The moved their jurisdiction to the Netherlands? In the EU? Wow. Now the GDPR can be used to really kick their butts.

[-] Miaou@jlai.lu 14 points 6 hours ago

GDPR applies regardless of where headquarters are located

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

There is always the issue of "x applies" and "x is enforcable". Think of Signal or Telegram here.

[-] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 8 points 6 hours ago

Yes, but it's easier to enforce EU regulations when the headquarters happens to be within the EU.

[-] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 4 hours ago

A move from Ireland to the Netherlands doesn't really change much in that regard.

[-] Mubelotix@jlai.lu 7 points 6 hours ago

They would be forced to delete all messages of all deleted users

[-] paboppa@jlai.lu 34 points 12 hours ago

It moved from Ireland to the Netherlands, both are in the EU. This will not change anything regarding GDPR.
