@alloalli @lipow @0xabad1dea Small sidenote, this ain't necessarily true for cell broadcasts. If your phone got O2 as a carrier network but no signal it will still pick up a cell broadcast transmitted by towers of "rivaling" Telecom providers.

I hope everyone involved is putting in reasonable hours and getting enough sleep.

I checked my gmail spam folder and found a legitimate notice that I may qualify for a class action suite against Google over invasion of privacy. this is a maximally google turn of events

@batterpunts I estimate a 5% chance they either sigh and unblock me or send me logs demonstrating that someone once nmap'd them from this IP address two years ago, but whoever clicks it will have to live forever with the nagging knowledge that they have angered a witch

@0xabad1dea @andrewdwilliams projects like Ergo implement IRCv3 features that do a lot to tame it but fundamentally your rubbing up against the fact that the ecosystem is calcified

@cavyherd The thorny ethical issue then becomes: how much effort is reasonable to expend in pulling a patron away from a Nazi bar in the hope that he doesn't have a Nazi soul, just an empty soul attracted to a Nazi bar?The answers are probably different for a single publican and a society as a whole, the difference taking a very strange form of the Prisoner's Dilemma.@stevenbodzin @0xabad1dea
