Does anyone have a mirror? I’m in authoritarian UK so the link is blocked


If you're in the UK in January, you can probably just look outside and that's approximately it.


I wish the UK looked this good.


Have you been to the Barbican?


The rimigo proxy works for me: https://rimgo.vern.cc/a/nFQN5tx


The link is blocked by imgur themselves, not the British government (authoritarian or otherwise), because the ICO was going to fine them for historic poor handling of children's data. https://ico.org.uk/about-the-ico/media-centre/news-and-blogs...


What does that even entail? Why does a site like Imgur even need to know which users are children?


Didn't it have user accounts and comments?


It had user accounts and it hosts prodigious amounts of porn, so it ran afoul of the part of the law that says that if you have user accounts and host user-generated content of any sort you have to make sure you're not showing porn to children.

It's annoying, but Imgur really do need to get a handle on things because that's where people host all the CSAM they post into Matrix channels.

Here you go. I had it uploaded after hearing from the magospietato's comment but then saw you talk about the same so I am pasting the same image link here as well
