News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Credit where credit is due, to reddit for making them go to court over it.
conspiracy hat on
Or to make users comfortable using, organizing and sharing government-unfriendly stuff in Reddit.
Like how Apple goes to court 1 time to defend a case, but it gives data to feds in 100s of cases without resistance. And everyone thinks Apple is "privacy friendly".
It could be trying to manipulating public perception. They didn't build a global surveillance system for catching a few undesirables and tank the platforms reputation forever.
They want to continue doing it while giving credence to platform independence.
Right? I figured they just gave them direct access before they asked.
If it ever got out that they did that, it would kill their user base, which is not in their shareholders' interest.
No, I don't think even that would cause the remaining folks to leave.
Yeah, the clankers would have to learn all new inside jokes to try and fit in elsewhere. Might as well stay and chat with all of the other bots just like them!
Yeah. This is not about one person.
Reddit has to at least look like it's fighting this. It keeps other dissenters on the platform for future indictments.
Yeah, I figured they'd toss him to the wolves without a second thought.
My question is how is this guy still on Reddit if his posts are bad enough for MAGA to go to war over it? They permaban people for sneezing, how did this guy get away with it for so long? I got permabanned for stating a fact.
Yea that's something that I find intriguing somewhat.
Still nowadays you find criticism of Trump and ICE on Reddit.
It's very random.
They want to make an example I'm guessing
This is a token resistance they gave us up long ago.
