It's worse than you think. Every website accessible in the UK, whether based there or not, will have to agree to a Code of Practice from Ofcom to remove anything that is considered misogynistic harassment, abuse, hateful, uncomfortable, unwanted, offensive or distressing by moderation, algorithm and/or filter. Fail to adhere to that code and ISP's and VPN's who trade in the UK will have to block that website. The website owners still face the consequence of massive fines and jail time too. If a ISP/VPN refuses to block it, they are prevented to trade and payment processors will have to block payments. I suspect the subscription VPN providers will not offer their services for free and many customers are not going to move to crypto.
The alternative for websites based outside of the UK will be to block UK traffic. But remember, even VPN's will have to adhere to the rules so using VPN's to bypass it is only a short term fix.
So vague is the definition of misogyny, likely based on how "the victim feels" looking at how Nottinghamshire Police implemented their Misogyny Hate Crime category, that it will have wide reaching impacts on every website. One example, dating apps could face consequences if an unattractive man messages or swipes right on a woman who takes offence at his interest. Think the online equivalent of the gym TikTok video that went viral after a man within a woman's presence was deemed "feral" because of his unwanted attention, presence and communication.
Another bill, the Protection from Sex-based Harassment in Public Bill 2022-23, intends to implement the same concepts to the offline space and is also making its way through Parliament.
I'm finding it hard to say what I want to say without breaking Rule 16.
Women really are taking control of their slaves now, aren't they. Cracking down on dissent, blocking outside information.
The More Feminine Way will be the most evil thing ever inflicted on human populations and if it's ever defeated, women will never, ever, ever, ever be forgiven, nor will they deserve to be.
