Re: Holdover from yesterday (more follow-up than news)
(Anonymous) 2024-09-05 07:03 am (UTC)(link)I mean, it wouldn't surprise me if they decided on it but never managed to implement it, German bureaucracy/bureaucrats are notoriously digitally illiterate.
Re: Holdover from yesterday (more follow-up than news)
(Anonymous) 2024-09-05 09:05 am (UTC)(link)German users on my tumblr had it blocked for some time
(they were also very strict about not using any vpn and not going to AO3 and I was weirded out by that so I remember)
Re: Holdover from yesterday (more follow-up than news)
(Anonymous) 2024-09-05 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)I asked some friends in Germany about this, I think in 2022, and they were baffled to notice that the AO3 wasn't available from a Google search anymore. However, they hadn't noticed anything before I linked them to articles claiming this was happening: they were longtime users of the AO3, and didn't need any search engine's help to discover the website. After poking the Google search, though, they confirmed that is was indeed blocked and there was a little blurb at the bottom of their search page mentioning that [I'm paraphrasing in English] 'some search results have been omitted'. There's information about what was done and for how long online - the links above have some of the details. I just commented on it here because I figured this is stuff other F!S users might care about.
