It seems like they didn't even consider any of the real issues. Things like deleted messages appearing in requests for your data, leaving a chat (or deleting your account while you are in a chat) with a deleted user not deleting the messages and uploads even though nobody is supposed to be able to re-join it, people getting banned for using scripts to mass-delete their own posts and in some cases getting banned for manually deleting their own posts "too fast", "right to be forgotten" requests being ignored, etc.

Given that a similar thing was introduced to the US senate[1] I will have to wonder who is behind this.

I can't believe people still respect Parag after what happened with Mudge.

As I said before, it does not matter. Before someone had an email address and now they don't, and it could happen to anyone with an .eu domain. This is what matters. It is an unreliable TLD for email addresses that you want to last.

This is irrelevant. Any country in the EU might do the same. I would hate to lose my domain because of this.

People from the UK that had an .eu domain were unable to renew it after brexit.

A reminder to go to your microsoft account remove consent for PolyMC once you change clients. The link is probably one of these: https://microsoft.com/consent, https://account.live.com/consent/manage

Various people (such as the creator of the PolyMC fork that is confusingly named PollyMC, notice the amount of 'l's) suggest to change the metadata server: https://github.com/fn2006/PollyMC/commit/121f6b2a4e05fa15b41.... I would personally suggest to use this fork because it does not require access to your MS account, so even if it was compromised the risk would end up being limited in comparison.

Side note: I find it sad to see how people took the chance to spread misinfo.

Example 1: claim that the MultiMC (not PolyMC!) developer is an alt right person who hates trans and gay people https://www.reddit.com/r/PolyMCLauncher/comments/y6k4x7/swit... (they took that idea from https://twitter.com/13yodeerfox/status/1582106791327899648, which did not even mention anything about lgbt)

Example 2: claim that the PolyMC developer received death threats: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33240644, I have not seen any evidence for this claim in the repo nor in the reddit and twitter threads. It might have been in DMs but the developer hasn't said anything about it to my knowledge.

The original(?) one was not great as it contained exclusionary/discriminatory rules. See the "We will not act on complaints regarding" section https://web.archive.org/web/20160304034554/http://todogroup....

I am not aware of any modern CoC containing such section.

They also remove legal pornographic content https://archive.org/post/1053748/porn-on-ia-wtf https://archive.org/post/1123868/no-bdsm-allowed

I think that puritanism and archivism are not compatible.

They also removed ISIS stuff https://archive.org/post/1033012/constant-removal-of-isis-vi...

Removing evidence of war-crimes and disallowing future historians from accessing such content in the future is not a policy that I would expect from an archive.
