Wow. And yet, everything that this guy has had done to him he is currently only serving time for hoolaginism.
He’s lucky he lives in Russia and wasn’t arrested in the UK while Starmer was in charge, he might have ended up in prison for life as a terrorist. /s
The incident took place at the height of Israel’s genocide in Gaza and before Keir Starmer’s government had implemented any restrictions on arms exports to Tel Aviv.
It should read
The incident took place at the height of Israel’s genocide in Gaza and before Keir Starmer’s government had implemented any secret plans to imprison people protesting genocide and label them as terrorists without the jury knowing
Funny how many businesses that have to deal with the general public every day are quick to implement technology that they are not worried may alienate the same people that they rely on to make money, as they take their data.
They only ‘paused’ it when they worried that they may/will be sued.
Facial Recognition experts have been saying for a long time that it is not ready to be used mainstream, Only greed got it pushed out and implemented so quickly. It has made leaps and bounds in advances, but it is still not ready, as has been proven in this instance alone, but thousands of others.
One of the good things about having the moron for president is that things like this aren’t hidden.
I can’t help thinking that every other US government (and not just the US) would do this anyway, but would be more Clandestine about it.
Was coming to say similar.
Scumbag reducing all of those deaths on both sides to some sort of game he thinks he is playing. It really and truly shows that he has neither the ability to comprehend what the fuck he is actually doing in the world, nor fit to be an elected official anywhere in the world, let alone president of the United States.
They’re correct, there is a concerted effort to oust him. What’s their point?
When a body as corrupt as UEFA are worried about his level of corruptness, FIFA should really take note… unless of course the corruption goes all the way down. 🤔😏
Would love to see the person that introduced this, and would love to have been there when they did, to see who all the others were that thought it was a great idea, and then ask the locals if they voted for any of them, and if so, why.
This seems to be a warning shot from UEFA letting him know that they have plenty of dirt on him to release if he doesn’t stop thinking he owns FIFA.
Not that they are any cleaner, but it might be interesting to see how it plays out.
There are also a ton more people doing a lot of niches, so now you get fewer views.
So it’s tougher to crack. Surely a better way to rise to the top would be to have fewer or no adverts, and better content.
That I can agree on, but then again, how would they even sell their product if there’s no advertisement? The companies that don’t charge too much and then stuff some of it into advertisement, tend to go under.
I am not against advertising as a tool. I’m mainly referring to the companies that will pay crazy money for advertising, and pass that expense on to the end users. Blanket advertising, shouldn’t be allowed, it also allows the bigger, wealthier companies to drown out the smaller and start up companies.
Creator doesn’t really know if you have premium or not and many users (me) will also have adblock so they don’t get a cent from these views. That’s why many will show you ad-free videos on Patreon or Nebula. No sponsor segments if they know you’re a paying customer.
That’s why YouTube Premium should be the same as Patreon or Nebula. The creators should be querying YouTube about working something out there, instead of hitting the users with ads that they thought they had paid to get rid of.
I also would suspect that this case would be more about about the letter of the law, and not about what’s expected from the creators etc. If YouTube are marketing an ad free experience to people that pay for the service, then this is what it should be. Overall, if anything, this case should work out better for everyone except probably Google. YouTube would have to find a better way/payment to allow creators to have two videos without making too much extra work for them. One for premium and one for non premium.
There is still product placement etc. Subtle suggestions and other methods that I’m sure many businesses would still pay for.
Unless they are referring to paid advertisements by the creators.
The creators would presumably take a cut/fee from YouTube for showing their content ad-free. sponsorblock already does something similar.
Creators already get paid very well for posting on YouTube.
A good rule of thumb for me is, if I see adverts on YouTube and on TV for the same company or product, then they are charging too much…
I choose to avoid them.
if somebody is advertising a small company/startup etc…
Go for it.
But if a creator has ads on premium that costs x amount each month.
Nahh…
–An ultra religious sponsorblock and ublock and hater of mass marketing.
The timing is crazy, that’s around the same time that Google and Android is expected to start disappearing from thousands of phones.
“you say genocide, I said war, when you’re attacked, that’s what the army is for”.
To quote one of his earlier songs…
"war is stupid and people are stupid… This world of hate must be designed for you It matters what you say, it matters what you do
So the idiot has gone from war being stupid to saying it is needed. He is still proving that people are stupid though.
What happens if they suggest telling the US supreme court to go fuck itself hard, and the rest of the world agrees with them?
I am not a betting person, but if I was, I would probably bet everything that I own, that Israel have taken well over $656m from them already.
The thing with Zionists… they think that because they have people everywhere the rest of the world can’t do shit about it.
That is going to be tested soon, and we will all find out. Not all dirty politicians are Zionists, even if most seem to be.
Hopefully this gains a fuckload of attention and convinces some Pro Palestine bands to play an even bigger concert in Aid of the animals…
Here are the three bands recommended in that article.

This is purely performative, but won’t be overturned.
it’s unlikely that spurious/generic parts will work unless they want them to, and even then they’ll be less effective.
Their official parts will likely be more expensive, so they’ll be easier to repair, but cost a lot more, instead of paying the repair shop.
The devices or machines will no longer become waste as much, but the parts will. Warranties will be voided etc.
What would’ve been a better law to introduce would be introducing a minimum time limit on planned obsolescence with the right to repair.
Also, in the EU many countries have law that supercedes EU warranty.
If your device has an inherent defect (was always going to break no matter what you did with it) and sometimes may need to be proven in a court of law, The warranty can be extended to 7 years (some countries are shorter).
For example if you buy a TV, and after 4 years it develops a fault outside the normal warranty, and you find out that, that model has a known fault that happens to a few of them, don’t try to repair it and void the warranty.
It may be still protected by that warranty in your country.
I am not 100% on this, but I think that he can go ahead with it without them. I have no idea why he would, and more details have come out since I posted that, now I just think he is scrambling to save himself, but he is probably gone. If he went ahead with it, they would probably fall in line, especially if they started to see profits for themselves. They are predominantly against the idea of it, and that there was no discussion about it.
It won’t really solve any of the other major issues anyway, but will just get rid of him - allegedly one of the worst, but no doubt we will see, if Nasser Al-Khelaifi or Sheikh Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa take over, with the former expected to, and he already ultimately answers to other people.
The next president needs to guarantee that they will make this option impossible going forward, or could possibly try to do it themselves in another fashion. Nasser was part of the super-league debacle so I am not sure he would get my vote without something in writing first. Infantino won his votes by basically promising extra money to all of his voters. UEFA are a big problem themselves, it just might be better to get rid of Infantino first.
The whole thing is a crooked tower waiting to fall. I don’t think it is a matter of if, but just a matter of when. The world cup will still be in Saudi Arabia in 2034.
He’s holding out until the elections. He knows there’s a slim chance that he mightn’t get re-elected while pushing this. But if he gets re-elected again in 2027, he will be able to sit for another 4 years and will have the time and power to change whatever he wants then.
Hopefully, in this instance it seems that a few of the federations have seen this corruption as a step too far and will have him removed from his position before he can stand for election again.

didn’t think it needed clarification, but obviously it did.
