tabular , to technology in Indonesia bans search engine DuckDuckGo on gambling, pornography concerns
@tabular@lemmy.world avatar

I’m no fan of gambling but there are far better reasons to object. Hindering others’ freedom because of your own faith-based belief is a far worse sin.

As I stated in other reply

This is just some of BS public stunts, they are trying to hide and create misinformation to deceive people. The mastermind of the online gambling issue here, is one of their cronies. A businessman, this guy being protected by top military brass and former general including a new elected president.

I have no doubt that could be the case.

    Totally unrelated to the OP but damn I’m impressed that DDG is such a large percentage of the market. 1.28% sounds like nothing but I can’t even guess how many millions of searches that is, that’s absolutely wild. well done duckfriends.

    That’s pretty hard, you can even selfhost your VPN outside the country, which it’s harder to block.

    And Maduro has Wagner guys running around. So if Russia does it, it’s OK?

    TokenBoomer ,

    Haven’t heard of that. Gotta source?

    Gsus4 ,

    g1.globo.com/…/grupo-wagner-e-considerado-ativo-e…

    Aparentemente, a Rússia também enviou unidades paramilitares para a América Latina. Segundo a agência de notícias Reuters, membros do exército privado Wagner voaram para Caracas em 2019 para garantir a segurança do presidente venezuelano Nicolás Maduro. Acredita-se que o Grupo Wagner também esteja ajudando a Venezuela a montar suas próprias unidades de elite.

    A Venezuela e a Rússia têm estreitos laços militares e econômicos. Os russos são um dos maiores credores do governo venezuelano: desde 2006, eles emprestaram cerca de 17 bilhões de dólares a Caracas. Dessa forma, a Rússia estaria assegurando o controle das maiores reservas de petróleo do mundo na Venezuela.

    TokenBoomer ,

    So, we have evidence that America has tried a coup in Venezuela before:

    Operation Gideon.

    A coup in 2002.

    A former U.S. National Security Advisor admitting on television that the U.S. attempted a coup in Venezuela.

    But, somehow I’m a fascist because I can’t immediately accept disgraced U.S. State Department propaganda?

    afraid_of_zombies2 , to news in Aspartame Sweetener Possible Carcinogen Says W.H..O

    Meh. If you ignore every cancer long enough you don’t have to worry about any of them.

    We need a neutral body that is willing to treat it like binary. Does it increase the odds of cancer above a certain threshold given situations that normal users would deal with? Then yes it causes cancer. Else no. I am sick of these governing bodies using weasel words to defend their claims. Statements like this make people do averaging. Suddenly these super hypothetical situations are rated as deadily as smoking.

    panicky_patzer OP ,

    I think a binary system leaves no room for nuance, and therefore, no ability for consumers to make informed decisions. What about a scale instead? 1 could mean “Cancerous? Technically, but don’t worry about it unless you’re mainlining it 23 hours a day, dude.” And 10 could mean, “Seriously, make sure your will is updated.”

    wolfpack86 ,

    Like cooking meat creates carcinogens if any of it is burned.

    At some point, who the fuck cares. I have to die of something.

    HobbitFoot , to world in Venezuela's Maduro asks for phone call with Lula, says source

    It is traditional for election winners to receive congratulatory phone calls from the leaders of other countries after winning an election as a sign of that country accepting the vote.

    The US and European leaders not calling is a sign they disagree with the election results. That Lula hasn’t called is probably a much bigger deal to Maduro’s legitimacy.
