I can't play itch.io games anymore??
Several people just reported it. I tried it for myself and yeah, can't play games, because I live in the UK. All I'm getting is:

"Due to regulatory requirements established by the United Kingdom’s communications regulator (Ofcom), this page has been restricted from access within the UK due to the Online Safety Act."

Just wow.
This Labour Government is the absolute worst. A shower of b@st@rds.

The nanny state strikes again.

At this rate I'm getting Proton VPN.

May all of Starmer's hopes and dreams go unfulfilled.

Like, why don't you just take all your money and passwords and throw them on the street? It would be just as effective.

Do they teach absolutely nothing tech related in school anymore?
Because some sites know you're using a VPN, whether commercial or otherwise.

This guy is trying to give useful tips, but there's so many caveats to every solution and sometimes, nothing works, not even TOR.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: This Labour Government is the absolute worst.

Don't come crying to me about Trump, he's nothing compared to Smeghead Starmer.
It is just a matter of time before the same thing will happen to Steam, so I would download everything while you can.

You of all people should already know what's up. God is just about done with allowing filth to be shared digitally online for the whole world to access. :yazdhdwink:

But most internet traffic is pornography. If God didn't want that to happen, why did he let it happen in the first place? did he suddenly stop being all powerful? or did he stop being good?

Those are the only feasible answers.
No but I'll share uncontextually what apathy told me since you might be afraid to open links that are on steam as well.

"You underestimate the indomitable spirit of mankind. So theists lie and try to say those that go to hell is all part of their god's will too."

So man was always going to access and do things outside the will of God, but he also gave man free will to do because he is a fair and just God who wants to rightly divide between goats and sheep.

Don't drag your tribal desert beliefs in here, please. Either talk about Ofcom, the OSA, or go back to the 7+ god threads that are already up.

TOR isn’t some sort of super vpn

Do itch have a deepweb mirror, i don't use it but they should, they can sell their games on there and require crypto as payment

I don't understand why these sites are blocking people without implementing any age verification processes.

Oh, well if God truly gave mankind free will, then God would not punish mankind for using it. If there are threats and coercion in there, its no longer free-will.

"Love me, or else" is not love.
I know Alamort started it, but please don't join him in derailing discussions. Thanks.
From what I looked about the petition about this. It had got enough signature, but the Parliament literally did not care. I know I don't live in the UK, but seeing this could spread to other countries including the US is very troubling.
