An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.
Yesterday I noticed my DNS settings were blocking SaSu, so I wrote Control D's support about this.
Within 24h they got back to me with this:
Thanks for contacting Control D Support.
Our blocklists are built from a variety of sources, and sometimes we encounter false positives, like this example you've presented today. We have a very vocal community of users who let us know when they encounter these instances.
I've removed the site from our ad blocking list (for reference, it was only found in the "strict" version of our ad blocker; both balanced and relaxed had no issue loading the site). The changes will be reflected in the next hour.
There is no attempt at censorship here outside of the blocking of ads.
