"Sometimes people use “respect” to mean “treating someone like a person” and sometimes they use “respect” to mean “treating someone like an authority”
and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say “if you won’t respect me I won’t respect you” and they mean “if you won’t treat me like an authority I won’t treat you like a person”
and they think they’re being fair but they aren’t, and it’s not okay."

summary of Hetzner meta
@anotherconfused@toot.lgbt
Sure, I'll try to explain. 💙
Hetzner is a company that rents servers to anyone looking to host a website (such as a fedi admin). They happen to be one of the cheaper options, which has resulted in a situation where a majority of fedi instances are using Hetzner's servers. Recently, they attempted to shut down a well-known fedi instance for "hosting child pornography" which was actually a single yuri drawing that:
1. Did not picture any children.
2. Was not porn, it was mildly lewd at worst.
When pressed on this subject, they clarified that they don't allow any NSFW content on their network, and (we can infer) they consider depictions of lesbians to be sexual in nature. That is an old, well-known technique used by bigots to appear more legit.
This crisis was eventually averted by negotiating with Hetzner to only remove the image - instead of the whole website - but the problem still exists. A great many queer instances are at risk of being shut down if Hetzner notices their existence.

meta, politics
We're living through facists trying to define our existance as pornographic. That's the main thing I personally found so frustrating about Hetzner selectively enforcing ToS. Like ashten said, why takedown notice a trans server but not techbro MAP spaces?
Kids having access to media depicting people their age living queer lives is so important. I will die on this hill. I grew up in a pseudo cultic Christian environment and was told queers are the devil. My first real experience seeing queerness celebrated was well into college. It reframed my whole life. I could finally understand why I felt so different, and I was furious at my parents for making sure I never got to see positive depictions of queer people.
The debate of whether Yuri is NSFW is asenine. It accepts the framing from queerphobes that non cishet interactions between high school kids are pornographic.
For many this might not feel familiar. But for trans people, having to defend our existence as something not inherently sexual is a daily struggle. In my country right now, they're trying to crack down on pornography while defining trans existence as pornographic. To bigots, transing your gender is a fetish and simply existing in public is forcing that kink on everyone else. Think of the children!!! Accepting their framing on this issue even a little bit is ceding ground I'm not comfortable giving up
So yeah, fuck hetzner. Worst they do is nuke this site until we can get our self host servers up in a week or two. I will be posting NSFW again, but also Yuri and wholesome content that only a bigot would think is pornographic

Companies *need* to be liable for everything their "AI" outputs
I really loved the case when AI chatbot of an airline hallucinated nonexistent discount and the court ruled that the airline has to give that discount to the customer
Suddenly, the chatbot disappeared from their website 🙃
