    And how many people answer that on Sunday night?

    What I’m getting at is a major website has at least a skeleton staff that can do something, even if that’s just pulling the plug.

    I don’t even reply to most work texts after hours unless it’s someone saying they have to use sick leave. I don’t expect people hosting Lemmy as a hobby to be on call 24/7.

    But I hope afterwards they’re transparent about what happened and how they’re going to stop it from happening again. If not, it’s easy to hop instances

    What impact?

    As long as you dont go on lemmy.world, it’s not going to redirect you to all the stupid websites.

    And I doubt whatever they’re posting (if they’re posting anything) is getting upvoted, so you won’t see it anywhere else.

    And where are you getting “malware” from?

    People are acting like it’s some crazy hack, and not the 4chan rejects from exploding heads finally guessing an admins password a week after they got defederated. And after all that time chasing the mailman, they had no idea what to do when they guessed it

    But this does highlight an issue with instances. I doubt the handful of admins know each other. Like, maybe an email, but for the most part if shit like this happens during “off hours” it might be a while before the top admin even knows there’s an issue

    Twitter will abide by the law but will not go further, Musk said during the interview. He claimed hate speech had decreased by 30 percent since he took over, even as Lapix presented him with statistics saying the opposite — including a study by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue exposing a 105 percent increase in antisemitic posts.

    Pressed by the interviewer, the billionaire, a self-proclaimed freedom of expression absolutist, said the definition of hate speech shouldn’t be too broad or it could lead to censorship. Shown tweets rejoicing about the migrant boat disaster off Greece last week, Musk conceded they were “distasteful” but should remain online as long as they’re not illegal.

    His definition of hate speech is just shit he disagrees with.

    He agrees with anti-lgtbq and antisemitism, so to him, that’s not hate speech
