In response to this post @ChrisMayLA6 I have also pointed at a lot of the #MeToo stuff for NDAs when challenging them saying this applies very similarly and that it isn't me being "legally unreasonable" (lawyers rarely grok it) but knowing I won't keep to it, so shouldn't sign up to it. Universities were cited as specifically nasty litigants in a review of disability discrimination cases in about 2007 before DRC became the useless EHRC.

In response to this post Long thread/50Which is wild, because it's 26 words long and fits in a tweet: > No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider. Section 230 was passed because when companies were held liable for their users' speech, they "solved" this problem by just blocking every controversial thing a user said. Without Section 230, there would be no Black Lives Matter, no #metoo
Long thread/51There'd be no online spaces where the powerful were held to account. Meanwhile, rich and powerful people would continue to enjoy online platforms where they and their bootlickers could pump out the most grotesque nonsense imaginable, either because they owned those platforms (ahem, Twitter and Truth Social) or because rich and powerful people can afford the professional advice needed to navigate the content-moderation bureaucracies of large systems. 51/

@NatalyaD
yes, its the disconnect between their claim to be enlightened workplaces & their actual actions that always annoyed me - university HR departments are frequently a nest of vipers doing top managers' dirty work for them
