@cakewallet confused by wallet group. Great idea but if something happens to cake how do I get access to those groups? i.e. BTC seed with XMR grouped in.

They don't have to burn the books, they just threaten you into compliance.

[Reclaim The Net @ReclaimTheNetHQ]

The EU’s Digital Services Act doesn’t always have to tell platforms to censor: it makes them want to censor.

Commissioner Henna Virkkunen says most takedowns aren’t government-ordered, and points to transparency data showing 99% of removals are based on platform T&Cs.

But that’s not independence, it’s anticipatory compliance. These companies know the game: say the wrong thing, pay the price. Brussels doesn’t need to issue takedown orders when the regulatory threat is baked into the architecture.

By holding platforms legally liable for failing to remove certain content, the DSA incentivizes silence without overt demands.

Trusted flaggers and direct orders are just the visible tip. The real enforcement lives in boardroom decisions made to dodge EU retaliation.

@pete_rizzo_ But it's not though. Just a marketing ploy by a minor chain desperate for income.
