I think you're over exaggerating. "DMCA ignored" doesn't mean the operator and the host are criminal, or they would ignored court orders. It may just mean they won’t remove content automatically when a notice is disputed or when fair use is plausible.
Im not quite sure how that immediately equates to cirminal activity. lmao. All thats asked from that is not to apply bullshit exploitable and abusable US law where its not applicable. Come at me with a valid court order, ill take it down.
Please clarify the actual rules under "Politics", I got a "Severe" level warning for something that isn't actually a rule. The rule is allegedly: politics-related topics may only be posted in Cest Pit.
cool
I wasn't aware of that rule either. I always thought politics was only allowed in Offtopic.
I mean, that's what the rules say, so it's a reasonable assumption.
is there any new rules for the new security category ?
Can somehow be adjusted, that profile pictures aren't bigger than everyone else has? Because i see users with whole username in it with an unknown picture form and that spreads the line to the right.
Those are just broken. They're not actual profile pictures.
Probably not. I assume it's the same as the News category, but for security-related news.
I wonder why streetwear/sneakers are so special that half the internet has special rules about them. Like why do we care about Nike's profit margin?
That's just what they're called, but it's not specific to shoes. It's any proxies that are used to quickly grab limited-offer products and the like. An example ad from a residential proxy provider with those services (the kind that LET would not welcome) explains what they're used for well:
"Sneaker proxies are residential and ISP IP addresses used with sneaker bots to place multiple checkout tasks on limited releases without getting blocked. seamless delivers clean, low-fraud IPs that survive Nike SNKRS, Shopify, Footsites and Adidas drops. [...] When a limited sneaker releases, every retailer rate-limits and bans IPs that send more than one or two checkout requests. Sneaker proxies spread your bot's tasks across thousands of real residential and ISP IP addresses, so each task looks like a separate shopper. The result: more entries, fewer bans, and a far higher chance of securing the pair."
So while it's named after sneakers, it's also used to grab VPS deals during flash sales...
