Democrat teams up with movie industry to propose website-blocking law

[tanoh@lemmy.world]

It sort if have to be. In the end there has to be one source of truth for each TLD, otherwise who is to say who owns foo.com, and what it resolves to?

And then the same structure for assigning TLD ownership.

But there is nothing stopping you from running another DNS service, call it DNS2 with different root servers, etc. It is just going to be extemely hard to convince people to use it.

We already have site blocking in France.

77 year old who has been in the house since the 90s. Actually a prime example of why we need term limits and real competition in elections (if not from GOP, at least in primaries). Irony is she reps a district that isn't really associated with streaming or producing movies.

My guess? She won her primary because she was the incombent or was unopposed, but she probably receives cash from the film industry. Almost all house seats are uncompetitive unless someone drops out or gets redistricted. Until something changes, this is and will be the way our government continues to work.

If they are not blocking the access to the WHO.is servers you can get the IP address of the site and add it to your local hosts file.

I'm missing the part where consumers are required to use their ISP DNS. I never do, in favour of CloudFlare DNS, Google DNS, etc

Pihole also let's you install unbound. Your own recursive resolver. So you don't have to rely on google or quad9 etc.

Cool I might do that. I assume I can find a docker compose somewhere.

Even out of power they still find a way to give hand jobs for industry donations and casually screw the public. I admire their energy.

Ginat meteor is what we need.

Trump is president and this is their priority?

Corporate dictatorship masquerading as "democracy"

[mpony@lemmy.world]

Wait until they start "the VPN wars". it's invariable at this point. Only the VPN that has bribed The Emperor the most will survive.

[bronzebeard@lemm.ee]

Democrats once again losing on purpose.

[schadrach@lemmy.sdf.org]

Of course it is, what else would you expect from the controlled opposition party?

[icastfist@programming.dev]

Why wouldn't it be? People's interests don't bring in money

[exusia@lemmy.world]

in power since the 90s

Oh so carrying the torch for the LAST time they tried to go after media with the moral panic of "Explicit" music label stuff led by Tipper Gore? The one where Twisted Sister showed up in 1985. A continuation from when they had a panic about VHS recordings in 1969 and Mr Rogers testified.

Doesn't the IP address change anyway?

[shardikprime@lemmy.world]

These people were everyone's hope? LMAO

[werefreeatlast@lemmy.world]

Okay.... And that helps anyone how? Where's the other foot? I would like to help? I have a sledge hammer! C'mon don't be shy.

But, I got ideas! How about everyone who files for a patent has to give the Democratic party all their money or how autocorrect wants, all their monkey! That'll show them!

And how about everyone who goes to and graduates from college must serve a 30 year sentence? Fabulous!

Need a car license? Just smash your car on this steel wall! Yey! So easy! So much better than racists!

WTF! Put the thinking cap back on dudes!

99942 Apophis is scheduled to come visit for a near pass on Friday, April 13, 2029. It briefly held the highest rating of any object ever on the Torino scale when it was discovered 20 years ago. Another asteroid detected just last week is currently a Torino 3 but also won't be here for 7 years and only has a 1.4% chance of striking Earth based on current observations.
