Turkey blocks instant messaging platform Discord
ISTANBUL, Oct 9 (Reuters) - Turkey has blocked access to instant messaging platform Discord in line with a court decision after the platform refused to share information demanded by Ankara, Turkish authorities said on Wednesday.
The San Francisco-based company did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Turkey's Information Technologies and Communication Authority published the access ban decision on its website.
Justice minister Yilmaz Tunc said an Ankara court decided to block access to Discord from Turkey due to sufficient suspicion that crimes of "child sexual abuse and obscenity" had been committed by some using the platform.

It actually began with a control alt delete dialog in Windows 3.1, took the Windows 9x form in Windows 95, and since the final release of NT 3.1, has took on its current role of being an unrecoverable system crash.
Linux actually now has a kernel panic screen, and yes, it was a LONG time coming!
BSOD was probably an improvement over just crumbling before your eyes.
At the time I believe that H/W vendors were producing crappy hardware, knowing that MS would get the blame for crashing.

"She was there before Elvis, Little Richard and Johnny Cash swiveled their hips and strummed their guitars. It was Tharpe, the godmother of rock 'n' roll, who turned this burgeoning musical style into an international sensation."

Carbon capture, utilization and storage technologies are expected to play a role in cutting CO2 emissions and limiting global warming, but some critics say they are costly and divert attention from more effective strategies.

I completely agree. No carbon capture until we have enough renewables built to cover everything. If there are any emissions that are too hard to replace with electricity or biofuels, then capture could be considered.
It is far cheaper to prevent emissions than to remove emissions.

I think it is a tactic to get discord to follow the rules, not to actually limit harm.
