I do volunteer work at a youth organization in the Netherlands. Recently smoking has become a lot more popular. Nearly all kids between 18 and 25 smoke here. There is also a very clear group effect. People start smoking because others are doing it.

Thanks, I'll give them a call tomorrow. The website only lists a dutch phone number, which is convenient, I'm dutch as well.

Not yet. I also thought about reaching out to the embassy, but have not had the time for it yet.

That might help.

My site has nothing to do with football though. And Allot seems to be running the DNS server that your ISP uses so they are directly responsible for the block.

I have my own dedicated IP range. And they specifically blocked my domain name, not the addresses. I don't know what the reason is. I have been trying to find out since the start of this year.

Creator of pixeldrain here. Italy has been doing this for a very long time. They never notified me of any such material being present on my site. I have a lot of measures in place to prevent the spread of CSAM. I have sent dozens of mails to Polizia Postale and even tried calling them a few times, but they never respond. My mails go unanswered and they just hang up the phone.

Creator of pixeldrain here. I have no idea why my site is blocked in Spain, but it's a long running issue.

I actually never discovered who was responsible for the blockade, until I read this comment. I'm going to look into Allot and send them an email.

EDIT: Also, your DNS provider is censoring (and probably monitoring) your internet traffic. I would switch to a different provider.

Neat, my personal site pixeldrain.com is in there

The "refuses ro remove it" part is not even necessary. I run a large cloud storage site, and like all cloud storage it sees some abuse. I have set up a few processes to detect and remove child abuse content.

At some point the Police in Italy found some abusive content on my site. They did not inform me, they did not report the files. Instead they just blocked the whole site with a large pedophilia warning.

I have been trying to get in contact with the Italian police for months, but there is no working email address on any of the sites, and the people on the phone only speak Italian. It's a pretty hopeless situation.

Energy consumption is directly correlated to heat production. The capacity of a datacenter is basically its capacity to keep servers cool. That's why datacenter capacity is measured in watts.

I should not have posted this hours before new year's eve

Who says the US isn't controlling the narrative on US social media?
