Hello πŸ‘‹ I was on one of them! I didn't think I had been here long enough, but I made the cut! Did you?

Nope, but three of my communities did!
Congrats!

Extremist dev of the Tesseract front end for Lemmy coded in a secret blacklist full of thousands of users, communities, and instances. Further adding to the duplicity was that Instead of displaying a note that anything was banned, it returned a generic error message as if to make users think there was only a technical issue.

How were the users identified and why am I on that list?

... what you've said... reminds me of a song.

ahem

Find him, bind him,

Tie him to a pole and break

His fingers to splinters.

Drag him to a hole

Until he wakes up naked

Clawing at the ceiling of his grave.

Yo ho. Y'arr.

When things like this happen... I get a strange, nautical kind of jolly.

Who doesn't like a good song?

Whats the point of keeping up the good fight... if you can't have fun while doing it?

Ahahaha!

Yep... yep this is approximately as stupid as that was.

Like I said elsewhere, might have been a different thread... reminds me of GMod RP admins working in SteamID blocklists to ban rival RP community members.

The funny part with that though is... these were literal 14 yo's, and they were clever enough to actually encrypt the entire file, you needed a server key to unencrypt and run both that file and the whole gamemode.

So, from that lense, this is more poorly executed than what a 14yo squeaker that ran a GMod server almost 20 years ago can do.

Its so sad it wraps around to hilarious, for me.

Dumbfuck boomer Admiral Patrick got out done by his grandson, before his grandson's balls had even dropped.

Just comedy gold.

This bitch rage quit his instance because he was mad that people liked Luigi

And the guy Luigi killed, killed far more people to boot. Killing by neglegence and bureocracy. That's just wholesome normal shit right? Nothing wrong witrh that. God forbid you celebrate the death of a murdurer.......... you monster!

I'd like to see a society where murder isn't the solution. But when murderers are allowed to profit and succede with no reprocussions. That certainly isn't it. And I'm certianly not going to be up in arms about the person that did what society failed to do. It's rediculous.

anything that might scare of the "normies" was considered bannable. Luigiposting for instance. That was the stated aim of the project to make it a safe-space for the most fragile group on the internet, the normies.

In addition to providing powerful tools for mods and admins, Tesseract is designed first and foremost for β€œnormies”.

Thanks for the link, I didn't know about this yet. So from what I gather, deploying malware on other's servers so you can secretly control the narrative of what ideas can propagate is something "someone had to do." Disgusting behavior, betraying trust and consent in one fell swoop for who knows how many folks and server owners that used the software.

I hope it didn't matter even if it was written as a heartfelt apology, but hopefully the doubling down here further emboldens the complete removal of Terreract from Lemmy server stacks, and users' willingness to utilize it in any capacity. This is obviously not an individual anyone can trust to run their code, and who knows what may be cooked up nextβ€”or is still waiting to be discovered.

One of those accounts basically made some benign comments and posted Sonic art they drew to relevant places. Given that I'm surprised more users aren't on there. Hell, I've literally drawn Luigi memes and wasn't there, idk.
