Reject your fantasy or accept Russian jurisdiction.

This is purely your fantasy and nothing more. Not only websites send data to countries their operators never heard of, physical goods get shipped overseas to countries senders never heard of with zero randomland lawabidery happening. Actual deranged countries like mine are fucking furious about it, writing laws that would've forced companies to open regional departments so that they have something to grab by the balls. Since said laws have zero jurisdiction on said companies, the most the country can do about it is cry and block the traffic.

Google was a notable exception, opening a department to manage Google cache servers physically scattered around the country. Google has since left. Google has then been fined for several undecillion dollars, a number exceeding world GDP. Google, of course, doesn't give a flying fuck.

So, don't be as pathetic as my country. If you aren't under X country jurisdiction, no amount of "pretty settled laws" apply to you, so you don't have to abide by anything X wishes, claims or misleads you about. Sending virtual data or physical goods there doesn't count either.

It's more complicated than that. For the new language, it's easier to displace a closer related language, harder to displace your native one etc etc.

Yeah, except there's no video link.

I had to write https://github.com/t184256/podcastify / https://github.com/t184256/yousable to actually get videos. Now, when I've done that, Bob's my uncle. Actually usable YouTube with automatic predownloading, local playback and no ads.

Any real arguments for falling under jurisdiction for sending network packets? Does it have to be a company, or do you also have to abide by jurisdiction of the country I'm in? My server is in? Your server is in?

TikTok app merely being operational in the US is not presence. Implying that would be as ridiculous as giving a country jurisdiction over you becaues you sent a letter there.

Because they don't visit.

Yet when I'm asking Lemmy when are they gonna start voting independent, the answer is always "not now".

  1. What's the significance of the particular canary, what's omitted?

  2. Why would one need a special USB device for that if literally any USB device would work with, like, half a dozen lines of configuration?

I firmly believe people "latch on" only because of social networks.
