General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

I agree, but one one specific point:

they've to know all the pages you've considered whacking off to

As someone who has gone through developed vetting, GCHQ already know everything you've considered whacking odd to and every message you've sent over a public channel.

Yes, but that is limited to natsec folks. This is meant to be held in a way lower level govt, business, oligarchs, hackers, foreign intelligence, other groups can access, I suspect.

Most importantly I think tech will be holding it, or have copied it to data banks. Fed to ai to make assumptions about us. I bet.
