Today, OFCOM launched an official investigation into Sanctioned Suicide under the UK’s Online Safety Act. This has already made headlines across the UK.
This is a clear and unprecedented overreach by a foreign regulator against a U.S.-based platform. We reject this interference and will be defending the site’s existence and mission.
In addition to our public response, we are currently seeking legal representation to ensure the best possible defense in this matter. If you are a lawyer or know of one who may be able to assist, please contact us at [email protected].

I've thought about doing it out in the woods but it would be my luck some idiot would be out for a hike & find me.![]()
A lot of us (not saying you...) are suicidal b/c we just have no support community. But like you say, the ONE time we want to be absolutely alone, THAT'S when someone would appear as if by magic and be all like, "Hey, lemme help you!"
I have that problem atm. While I'm grateful and fortunate to have a supportive community around me, I too fear that they may hinder me the day or time that I decide I had enough of life and want to exit.A lot of us (not saying you...) are suicidal b/c we just have no support community.

Who the fuck is going to be so desperate to hack you, and there are easier things to hack.)
Yeah, me too, especially since I don't even have a cell phone.One thing is for sure, my cell phone won't be coming with me.
I used to pray every single night as a kid that I would die before I woke up. I am so extraordinarily hopeless.
By using a 3D camera and random forest, the experimental results show that the proposed detection algorithm
can detect hanging suicide attempts with more than 95% accuracy.
I can't believe researchers are using A.I. to prevent suicide instead of trying to figure out something new.Google "Detection of a Suicide by Hanging Based on a 3D Image Analysis".
Really? You can't even kill youself in jail?various systems have been proposed to detect and prevent hanging attempts
Yeah, they can spend money on that, but can't pay a decent wage, can't provide free healthcare, can't spend money on mental health research other than "it's only a temporary problem"!I can't believe researchers are using A.I. to prevent suicide instead of trying to figure out something new.

Society has always viewed suicide as irrational, and considered it a mental illness. The church, for example, sees it as a sin. In the past, Christians who died by way of suicide were not given a proper burial. It wasnt until a few centuries later that people began to tolerate the idea of suicide, but we're not at the point where it's socially accepted yet. I'm not sure we'll ever reach that point.I can't believe researchers are using A.I. to prevent suicide instead of trying to figure out something new.
