Earth’s rotation is unpredictable. It gradually slows due to tidal forces, but recently (since around 2020) it’s been speeding up due to climate factors like melting ice at the poles redistributing mass toward the equator. This acceleration means a negative leap second might have been needed soon, a scenario that terrifies computer engineers 😆

The last time I checked, no person under the age of 18 can purchase internet access from an ISP. An adult has to enter a contract before a single byte can be transferred across the internet. All the content you see online was put there by an adult, or the responsibility of an adult. The internet itself is already an age gate.
This shit is like a nightclub sueing the government to have the bus driver check id’s

Its actually the capitalist class that feels entitled to other people labor for “free”, or grossly underpaid
Their labor was already exploited before it became a product for you to download

I don’t think these assholes understand that its a VERY useful tool for archiving the internet, which helps keep powerful people accountable. We must fight to keep this tool so that journalists and activists can keep speaking truth to power.
what 1984 bullshit is this that Anti-fascism = terrorism?
