The Internet Is Over

The Internet Is Over

Yesterday, the European Parliament passed a widely reviled scheme to line the pockets of big business while throwing the door wide open to Stalinist internet censorship. Most of the new Copyright Directive's critics single out Articles 11 and 13 as the most onerous provisions. Article 11 is a tax designed…

The Twilight of Conservatism

The Twilight of Conservatism

The following was originally a response to a comment on yesterday's post that I thought deserved a post of its own. The current orgy of blue falconing exemplifies the convulsions you see when an established ideology slips into decline and new ideas start to supplant it. For instance, the whole…

#ComicsGateGate

#ComicsGateGate

This is why we can't have nice things. First, let's turn back the clock to Friday's post, wherein I warned the memebrs of #ComicsGate that they were repeating the same mistakes as #GamerGate and Sad Puppies. A couple of comments seem downright prescient in light of yesterday's turf war. First,…

The Virtual Wall

The Virtual Wall

Reader Man of the Atom comments: My bet is on a balkanization of the Internet, with major powers setting up their own ICANN and YP master servers (ICANN is nothing special or unique). Smaller nations would align under the larger nations -- an Internet NATO, Warsaw Pact, and Sino-Soviet Bloc…

Gab Is Next

Gab Is Next

We knew that Infowars wouldn't be the last dissident operation to run afoul of the big tech censors. Mere days after Facebook, Apple, Google, and Soundcloud banned Alex Jones, Microsoft has threatened to shut down free speech absolutist network Gab. Here's the announcement from Gab co-founder Andrew Torba. Building our…

Requiem for Infowars

Requiem for Infowars

The hit against independent broadcaster Alex Jones' Infowars operation orchestrated by Google, Apple, Facebook, Stitcher, and Spotify is rattling quite a few cages on the dissident Right. The whole episode is giving me a mild case of the Mandela Effect, since I thought Jones had been banned since last year.…

Gunn Control

Leftists took vicious delight in ruining anyone who failed to celebrate their transformation of the West into NYC's 42nd St. circa 1974. And they could libel, deplatform, and disemploy with impunity while the controlled opposition of Conservative Inc. played the Washington Generals to the Left's Harlem Globetrotters. But now that…

EU vs Google

EU vs Google

ZeroHedge reports that the EU is doing the job America's DOJ won't do: bring antitrust actions against Google. Shares of Google parent Alphabet are in the red on Wednesday morning as European Union antitrust regulators unveiled a record €4.3 billion ($5 billion) fine against the tech giant for allegedly anti-competitive…
