I was kind of wondering how long it would be until something like this happened.
When we talk about something we watched on Facebook, most people would call it a Facebook video.
When talking about something we watch on YouTube, people usually call it a YouTube video.
It’s probably only be a matter of time until someone tries to find a (formerly twitter) video and ends up on xvideos instead. I could totally see a lot of non-tech-friendly people accidentally doing that, and then telling all of their friends/family that (formerly twitter) is now just full of nudity and porn.
@MapleCoffee @gsa32, apart from copyright claims from xvideo.com
Oh, I wasn’t trying to say that that would be the official name. I think lot of people would probably call it that just because we use that style of description for other platforms.
If someone somehow wasn’t familiar with xvideos, they would definitely be suprised lol.
add it to the list! https://twitterisgoinggreat.com/
I’m in Indonesia. When the rebrand announcement happened I checked x.com and it was indeed blocked. But twitter.com worked fine (I mean, worked just like you’d expect a garbage dump to).
I checked a couple days later and it was the same. Now both work correctly.
If twitter.com got blocked it must have been for a very short period and at a weird time. I can’t imagine a redirect from a previously unrelated website triggering a block.
Thank you for the first hand account. I can’t stand reading all the comments from people assuming things.
The article clearly states that the government was talking with Twitter to resolve the problem. Companies don’t want downtime. It was a dumb move.
194 countries to go!
Indonesia is just bizarre. They’ve got the most draconian and nonsensical laws. The only step up is a full on fascist country like China or russia.
Other than being cheap, I don’t understand why so many digi nomads want to live there.
I don’t know how much you know about the political history of Indonesia, but it’s already pretty much a fascist state.
Check out The Act of Killing. It’s brutal.
It was, it no longer is.
How come you say that? Genuine question. Seemed to me like the people who did or supported the mass murders of Leftists were still in power.
Ask anyone in Indonesia if their country is fascist. Or better yet, go visit Indonesia and check by yourself.
When you kill people who say otherwise… all there is left is people who praise you… either out of fear or out of stupidity.
“Ask all the people in the country who would never say that out loud about their country as they’re under duress as saying that about their country will get them killed in their country”
Yeah, good plan
I always talk shit about my country (Indonesia), but Indonesia really is not a fascist state anymore. Seriously. Your information might be out of date as of 2023. Just tell me why you think Indonesia is a fascist state and I’ll see if it’s still applicable now.
Hey, I don’t have any information about Indonesia specifically; all I’m saying is that if you ask someone if the country they live in is fascist, you’ll get one of three “no”s:
- They’ll say no, because it isn’t.
- They’ll say no, because it is but they like it, and they know what a bad connotation the word has.
- They’ll say no, because it is and they don’t like it, but they know what a ban connotation the word has and they don’t want to be locked up for it.
This is like saying Germany is a fascist state because of the Nazi which are already gone a long time ago.
Edit: why the downvotes? The people referenced in the Act of Killings documentary are either no longer in power or long dead. The golfing dude who look important are just head of some gang organization who have a bad reputation among Indonesian people that know him (most don’t), not an elected government official. How is Indonesia a fascist state when every election periods we have two presidential candidates with very close vote counts?
The AFD disagree with you
