Is the era of cheap internet surveys over? A new paper demonstrates that AIs can now be "trivially programmed" to answer online surveys in ways that are essentially indistinguishable from humans.

We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

offsite link Taxpayers Are Charged for the BBC Whether They Like it or Not Sat Nov 22, 2025 11:00 | Charlotte Gill
It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

41756 dissapeared while i was commenting on it

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Tuesday April 08, 2003 22:07author by Keith Report this post to the editors

Indymedia IE lacks a good forum for discussion of editorial policy.

(i suppose you'll delete this too)

The article was by Ivan Rodriguez, about North Korea, it can be seen here:
http://www.ndfsk.dyn.to/pym/nr3/DKarm.htm

I commented on it, but seems the trigger happy ie editorial "team" nuked the article before i got around to submitting my comment.

My personal opinion is that N. Korea is pretty relevent to Ireland right now, but i guess they don't think so, but anyway, the policy here of "deleting" and not "hiding" like other indymedias sucks.

My comment is still here:
http://www.indymedia.ie/cgi-bin/newswire.cgi?id=41756
for the moment, but as it was really the previous comments that I was commenting on, it has lost it's value.

So which of the following guidelines did the post violate, asshole?

-

Editorial Guidelines
Indymedia is a democratic newswire. We want to see and hear the real stories, news, and opinions from around the country. While we struggle to maintain the newswire as a completely open forum we do monitor it and remove posts.

In general, posts may be removed for any of the following reasons:


being comments, not news - comments belong with the story being discussed - to have your say in response to a story on the site, use the "add your comments" link at the bottom of each story.

duplicate posts - make sure you've read the newswire

infactual or obviously false posts - the onus is on the author to check and confirm facts - if a factual error is brought to our attention it will be removed

libelous or slanderous posts - choose your language carefully

discriminatory or abusive posts

advertising or other inappropriate content

"libelous or slanderous posts - choose your language carefully

discriminatory or abusive posts"

if the above was applied in full then very little would remain on indy!

author by Aidanpublication date Wed Apr 09, 2003 12:21author address author phone Report this post to the editors

We've updated our editorial guidelines to include cross posts.

To wit articles that appear across the indymedia network. Theres little point of having 80 newswires if all 80 carry the same articles.
