Questions around the verification of takedown notices and the possibility of impersonation remain. Platforms must be more transparent about how these notices are received, verified and acted upon.
If you or someone you know has received a takedown notification from a social media platform, write to us at rightsline@sflc.in for free legal assistance.
Hey, sisters, how can I install JavaScript engine in my body? 😂
The real "getting canceled online" is when an admin deletes the spam message you posted on Usenet.
I live in the U S A and I've never had a Muslim try to force me to follow Sharia law.
But I've had Christians spend my entire life trying to make their Bible my problem.
Al Jazeera: Protesters break into Microsoft AI data centre site in Amsterdam

So we're finally splitting our monorepo! If you package #Pidgin, you'll want to read this post!
For those of you that don't know, the source code repository for Pidgin has historically contained four separate but related projects.
This has worked okay for the past 20 odd years, but has caused a number of issues including completely shadowing projects like #Finch.
Due to those issues and GTK+ 2 being removed from distributions we're separating everything!

SFLC.in has filed a petition challenging the takedown notices purportedly issued by the Delhi Police on 31 October and 2 November, 2026. We have approached the Delhi High Court seeking the quashing of the takedown notices that directed the removal of our X account and several posts published on it. Despite repeated attempts, the authenticity of these notices remains unverified. Our attempts to verify the notices with the Delhi Police have not yielded any confirmation.
RE: https://mastodon.social/@sflcin/117563591226854379
Several emails were returned as undeliverable, and we are yet to receive an official response from the Delhi Police.
The possibility of our entire account being taken down on the basis of unverified requests, without clear reasons or effective safeguards, has constrained us to file this Petition.

Stop thinking about how you are going to play games without RAM and start thinking "How could Sam Altman benefit from the 2.7 liters of blood plasma I am selfishly hoarding in my body?"
On 3 Nov'26, SFLC.in received notifications from X regarding takedown requests issued by the Delhi Police concerning 42 URLs, including the handle and posts of SFLC.in, IFF, @geoblockedindia, and other users.
We believe that these requests are unlawful and disproportionate and undermine the fundamental right to freedom of speech and expression enshrined under Article 19(1)(a) of the Indian Constitution.
