TL;DR: If this goes through--and currently it looks like it will--we'll have to move our company out of the EU and we might have to stop serving European users, if doing so without implementing upload filters would be illegal. All thanks to lobbyists and bureaucrats, with not a single citizen ever having asked to have their Internet censored for them.
This morning we reached 42%, now we've just raised over the 50% bar! Y'all are wonderful! \o/
Keep sharing and talking about #PeerTube: together, we have 15 days left to make it happen!

After the chaos over #YouTube's inexplicable takedown and enforced monetisation, Blender is now testing its own #PeerTube instance:
And so #Youtube won't allow the #Blender Foundation to share its creative commons licensed videos on the platform if they don't monetize it? Really? https://www.blendernation.com/2018/06/19/blender-foundation-youtube-update/ #b3d
@kristina I found a news article about parenting that confirms my existing opinion. https://www.theguardian.com/science/2018/jun/18/over-controlled-toddlers-grow-up-unable-to-cope
@jbond Exactly. Since most of those old pages don't tend to have ads, they're invisible to Google. Classic Authoritarian High Modernism (http://www.ribbonfarm.com/2010/07/26/a-big-little-idea-called-legibility)
Bad laws are bad. Now we have some examples of #SESTA / #FOSTA actively preventing political speech.

RSS and Google Reader are Dave Winer's pet peeves, and I'm sympathetic. But he's missing an even better example: what Google did to Dejanews. Just look at all these complaints about stuff that used to be on Usenet that is no longer available: https://hn.algolia.com/?query=groups%20dejanews&sort=byPopularity&prefix&page=0&dateRange=all&type=comment
The part about HTTPS totally makes sense. I've been struggling to articulate this for a while.
Dave Winer on http vs https vs google.
