Report – Unsafe: Meta Fails to Moderate Extreme Materials
Report – Unsafe: Meta Fails to Moderate Extreme Anti-trans Hate Across Facebook, Instagram, and Threads | GLAAD
A report on the failure of Big Tech (in this case Meta) to moderate content on their platforms. This is an excellent reason for the Fediverse to defederate from Threads (owned by meta). Especially as threads is the new Meta platform designed to share content with the rest of the Fediverse.
With laws such as the UK Online Safety bill now in force, admins have a good legal basis to defederate and protect the Fediverse from harmful content. So they can perform their legal duty without the risk of being threatened by big tech (which seems to be their usual modus operandi)

Debian 10 “buster” moved to archive.debian.org
Debian 10 "buster" has moved to archive.debian.org in order to free
space on the main mirror network. We plan to start removing files for
non-LTS architectures in about two weeks; the existing Release files
will then refer to no longer existing files on the main mirror network.
An exception is the security archive (which already has no non-LTS
architectures): we will only archive it after LTS support ended.
For LTS users this does not require any changes.
People interested in Debian history will have to refer to
archive.debian.org in the future.
