Body
Original Text
PBWorks seems to have added this
as an alert/ or whatever
on top of the content of this site...
As an American Hosting company,
maybe they are required to,
but as far as I know
content should not be limited,
one of the goals of the internet
was exchange of information,
PG-13, voluntary parental guidance
is recommended
as some of the content
may not be suitable
for younger ears/eyes, but
how to learn,
what to learn from and
other things,
might not be in the realm
of international law...
Modified Text
What's Missing?
Regulatory information on why that is...
Enforcement
definition of the "service"
reading content
or creating content
given only open to myself,
not sure full service is meant,
or not
What Can Be Found?
Reasons to argue with the notice
And reasons why that would be a waste of time...
What Can Not Be Found?
Easy, free/cheap legal counsel for resolving it...
How To Analyze?
Lenses
Hosting Company
EU privacy stuff with FaceBook
and other services,
on the international stage,
Content Creators
Readers
Vulnerable Populations
I don't want to have to read,
therefore looking for any reason
to burn the book/ destroy content,
and other reasons to limit liability
for those we don't generally care about,
so Go Figure...
Rights People
Fairly ironically, rights conflict,
readers rights/ vs content creator's rights
popularity may have something to do with it,
IDK, IMNSHO, so very unpopular stuff
may have more rights than popular stuff,
say Mien Kopft (????) Some Hitler S,S,
propaganda, far more offensive, in retrospect
than most of what is up here,
Vs. The BIble,
in areas where the majority of people are not
christian, nor religious,
shelved under fiction, and popular fiction,
at that, blasphemy in a strict environment,
possibly humorous in a non totalitarian
state, so religion and politics weave their
wormy little ways into our lives,
whether we want it to or not,
but I digress,
and taking a nap,
sleeping much at all,
might be a good idea.
Late night/ early morning drivel
may not make the most sense,
editing in the am/ after some rest,
might be in order,
but might not,
free writing and not editing
thyself, is likely also prudent...
Maybe I said it,
but only to myself,
since privacy is lacking
in the modern digital world,
your emails could be made
public, even published,
given current ____
insert 18 minute gap here?
Freedom People
Given PBWorks, formerly PBWiki
is somewhat crippleware,
have to pay to get my full editing history,
maybe it is incompatible with freedom,
of the Richard M. Stallman variety,
so moving along before I die,
cannot connect, and lose data,
because of hosting restrictions,
and/or automagic backup system where
turn over to a fall back WikiPedia or simiilar
generic and more flexible hosting service
for archiving purposes..
Assumptions
.Com want to make money:
money in the post .bomb era is difficult
ads are not really good,
so hosting with ads worse than this,
currently???
Ubuntu Snap proprietary licensing
and the commercialization of things
starting out FREE, to be coopted to
NONFree, or variations of that,
are rather annoying, and possibly
illegal (IANAL) but violating
GPL? Version?
LGPL?
Perl Artistic License?
Creative Commons
Non Commercial
Non Derivative
etc...
Common Sense?
Minors
Not really pretending to speak for kids,
internationally, it would be difficult to
understand all the kids situations,
and country influences on them/it
so wonder how to even go about that?
Kids dying of starvation while some
pompus (sp?) ass bemoans
First World Problems?
Required reading in local and
international circles, and not a
wonder how safety of authors,
revenue stream and countermeasures
against stalking, harassment, attacks,
etc isn't part of the publishing and
other notoriety issues involved
in publishing...
Time Limits
EU may settle down
Brits may remove themselves
from the EU.
PBWorks may become international
and international law may catch up
with internet self publishing,
and other issues, far beyond
my pay grade, as some places say...
Conclusion
Summary of experience or similar
Indetermined at this point,
noticing the notice that popped up
and wondering about what it means,
for viewers, author(s), and other
concerned citizens, of the world...
Discussion
A place for feedback on the page presented
What restrictions do you
think there should be on this?
On information in general?
On the people who give homework?
On content in general?
Should book burning be allowed on the internet?
What of freedom of speech,
in the digital age?
How does that differ from hate speech?
How do you manage disagreements?
Warfare?
Debate?
Endless whining?
peaceful resistance?
