LFGSS and Microcosm shutting down 16th March 2025 (the day before the Online Safety Act is enforced)

I'll out myself as an anti-capitalist... Or rather I have a fundamental belief in privacy, that for us to have a democracy we require privacy at it's core, which means virtually no surveillance, etc.

I just couldn't bring myself to build what the rest of the internet has become. Some of what this law represents is that, from my perspective. My rejection of this is on so many fronts.

And very much to your credit. #bringbackrep What has been 'built' is not only simply stultifying and depressing, but also extremely dangerous (we're seeing it in manipulated elections, increasing market domination by large companies, ruin of people who don't want to exploit the ridiculous competitive advantage over the Internet, completely unsustainable logistics (delivering each parcel ordered on a whim individually from x number of delivery companies) and crazy transport all over the world, etc.). No-one should hold as much data as anti-social media companies do, certainly not even governments.
