Eh, every other incumbent leader was ousted in this last round of elections post covid though so his normally extreme disqualification might've been balanced out

Why do you keep recreating accounts with the same username?

It's not hard to figure out where people want to go, but is that route full of stable sediment layers/affecting the groundwater movement/at risk of erosion from groundwater movement/at risk of compaction/etc.

There's a ton going on into environmental surveys for construction

They have to keep consistently changing domains because they are blocked....

The effectiveness of the ban was not in your question.

They may still be online but that's not what you asked for. They are blocked in the US, which is what you asked for.

Go to a non white majority county, and you'll probably see some of this.

The law has already been passed to ban it. It takes effect in 2025. So while it is still accessible, it has in effect already been banned.

I guess since it has to already have been banned, then I could just trot out Napster, pirate Bay, Wikileaks, and Megaupload.....

Did I say it has been banned? No, I said that it is being banned, meaning still in the process. That is unless the owning entity sells it to another company that doesn't have significant foreign government controls.

Read critically.

It's almost like it's been a news story for the last year or so...

So tell me about how the restrictions against free speech designed to promote public panic and hazards "fire in a crowded theater" isn't precedent for this?

Tik tok?

Literally being banned unless it is sold by the foreign company that owns it.

How much of Twitter belongs to Saudi Arabia due to their massive investment for Musk (South African) to buy it?

Pretty sure you could push the same foreign interference line.
