I am sick of the constant bickering and water muddying that festers on every corner of this fucking site. Somebody give me a straight answer on this fucking matter, I haven't been paying much attention. Has/will the UK ban 4chan? If you are a faggot wishing to obfuscate the truth for ideological reasons, fuck off!

>>511370574 (OP)
No.

>>511370574 (OP)
Not yet.

>>511370857
thank you

>>511370574 (OP)
no, obviously not, retard, it hasn't been banned or age verification blocked yet
will it?
it fucking might, in general nothing is looking good right now but the silver lining is I don't think anybody is going to be voting labour again for at least another 14 years

if so far it's stood tall, it stands tall
will it be here tomorrow?
big possibly

I dunno why all these international companies in countries with weak diplomatic ties to us are even paying a lick of attention to it, pretty sure a lot of porn sites like xvideos are some kind of eastern european based, prolly czech, so like, why do they give one single ants fuck about the big bad uk government
every single company should have told them to just fuck off

>>511370574 (OP)
Can't even do that right.

>>511370574 (OP)
It probably won't be banned until Ofcom investigates 4chan and brings it to court. Do you really Hiromoot is aware of the Online Safety Act? He literally doesn't give a shit about 4chan, let alone the UK. The moment gookmoot hears about the UK gov threatening action he'll just pull out of the country.

>Thinks he will get to vote
In less than three years you have lost every internet and free speech right possible. What makes you think this is where they will stop retard? Airstrip 13 is cooked and we will be watching you burn because you blamed your shit on us.

>>511370574 (OP)
Yes, it's literally just 77th that has access now. Every single brit flag you see now is 77th as they got special dispensations to continue shitposting.

>>511371428
>you blamed your shit on us.
nigger I don't even know where you're from
calm down now

>>511371428
what is that ireland?
is that why you have such a stick up your arse about it?
go stew a potato paddy

4chan /gif/ is Britain's favorite porn site as of today. Enjoy the gore

>>511370574 (OP)
It's still up in the UK but in terms of future implications it's probably only a matter of time before it's not available, at least not without an ID check. From what I understand the meat and potatoes of the online safety act requires sites to have a more robust prevention system in place for minors accessing certain content, e.g. porn and harassment. Effectively 4chan would have to comply with a third party to check the age of its UK posters via some identification system, or the site will be blocked in the UK, either by 4chan's own initiative or when the UK would eventually do so otherwise. Apparently Ofcom would make the call for taking action against 4chan.
At this point we can only wait and see what happens and how long it will take.

I don't see how the UK government has the power to block the site

>>511370574 (OP)
Some users have already been banned. They're rolling it out I'm just not sure how exactly https://x.com/CountDankulaTV/status/1948837843104620726

If it does happen, you bet your arse Australia will be next.
Our government is furious that people are free to criticize Israel on 4chan, with our PM going so far as to literally print out a meme/infograph from 4chan and holding it up, in parliament, and reading it out loud, while holding back tears of anger.

>>511370574 (OP)
naur im still here sadly

>>511372149
>they're doing it by banning individual users
Sure thing chief.

>>511372096
Stupid Q. Every single ISP has blocked piratebay on analogous grounds. If the site won't comply with the law they just ask the ISPs to block it for them.

The only reason the porn sites are rolling out the age verification is to avoid a flat ban via the ISPs.

>>511370574 (OP)
No pal

>>511372213
You're really stupid aren't you?

>>511372349
Stupid enough to respond to you, not stupid enough to make a post saying some users have been banned and then act like I'm not the biggest tard in the room.

No bigger nugget than me

So if you want to come round for tea then we can get it on

What do you think, nigger!

>>511371020
>I dunno why all these international companies in countries with weak diplomatic ties to us are even paying a lick of attention to it
because in this case you are used as a testing ground/testing subjects
every one of those that participates wishes to do it as well

bongs, seriously, what will it take for the guvna to have them exit through a 2nd+ story window? hypothetically in Minecraft
this feels like asking for it outright

>>511370574 (OP)
dunno can you read my post?

>>511372242
it's not like they're going to be doing dpi

>>511372149
It depends on the ISP. Some ISPs are really quick to block sites. Whilst other ISPs seem to never get round to it.

>>511374134
no

Can't post here anymore lads pack it in

>>511374786
what are you responding to?

>>511372242
If the same thing happens with this site, a bunch of mirror sites will appear, just like they do for tpb

>>511372242
Old people on here might remember when Mumsnet was given control of the definition of 'harmful content' back in the day, before 4chan and it led to sites like Something Awful getting blocked by ISPs for a bit.

The UK Government has never really understood the Internet

>>511370574 (OP)
Soon

In order to use 4chan you have to have a 4chan loicence and in order to get it you have to have a Billy stamp
In order to get a Billy stamp you have to get a Willy Bush
to get a Willy Bush you have to have a 4chan loicence
Simple as
