Terfblocker upgrade

@doublemonkey On the Chrome webstore page for every extension there's a link to report abuse. The choices include ''illegal activity'', 'targeted harassment'' and ''other issues'' with a text box.

I don't think there is much they can do, is there?

Might be better to make complaints to Github.

Apparently lots of TRAs are marked red, because it's very subjective! A lot of them don't like it for that reason. They also don't like it that people can theoretically collect a list of green people to target, as it cuts both ways, and I am with them on that.

Google Chrome, I imagine

Can the maker be sued if I manage to find something transphobic on a 'green' site (or user)?

let them live in their bubble it wont protect them from seeing us protesting on the streets to protect our rights.

glad I dont use either of those browsers

I am willing to be corrected if my understanding of the numbers is incorrect.

It isn't.

Jess Phillips is a 'TERF' for failing to read out the names of mtf transitioners murdered this year - even though to my knowledge there haven't been any murders of mtf transitioners in the UK in either 2020 or 2021 (which is a good thing!!)

I am willing to be corrected if my understanding of the numbers is incorrect.

Yes, that might clarify it.

This is about Shinigami Eyes, not terfblocker.

Been around for years and iirc created by d challenor. With help from child forgotten name.

Imo. Do you feel personally at risk or concerned for anything IRL?

if not then. It's a bit sad. Autoblock everyone on a list made and ? maintained by others?

Years ago there were people on the list for no apparent reason.

It must have thousands on it by now!

Means nothing. Way way long. I mean I can't imagine anyone trawling through what must be a monster database and doing. Something. To everyone.

That's a word for the kind of ideological movement that enforces conformity and stamps out debate this rigorously.

Using that kind of personal data to determine whether service users/constituents are worthy of being served/represented is very sinister indeed, not to mention illegal.

Also looking up your colleagues would probably constitute workplace harassment if you tried to use it against them.

Versions of TerfBlocker have been created and shared by certain people over the years, one of whom was a child rapist and underage trans-age fetishist euphemistically referred to as "age play", who has a trans child.

Another terf blocker creater/sharer was a trans penis having person who gained a position in the Labour party as a women's officer. The only duty of that position is to encourage more women into politics in your constituency that is all. This person decided the best way to fulfilled that role was to ban and expel loads of women from the Labour Party membership, using Terf Blocker to help them.

Other examples more or less as bad.

It has a very long and painful history.

may come as a surprise to some people to find out they’re on the colour-coded “wrong side of history”. Jess Phillips, I’m afraid you are also red. I typed into Google “why is Jess Phillips red? Shinigami Eyes”, and found users having a discussion about the fact that when she reads out a list of murdered women in parliament, she fails to mention trans-women. It looks as if her fate has been sealed whether or not she decides to stand with us appointed TERFS.

As we know, there aren't actually any trans names to read out I'm sure Jess would if there were.

The child rapist?

I'm not sure who you are thinking of. The article posted above by Jordan Tyldesley is a really good overview.

if the extension were to be more widely adopted, say by people working in the media and politics. Then it could prove an incredibly useful and powerful tool for avoiding accidentally leaning into anti-trans biases and rhetoric.

Sounds like an interesting topic for freedom of information requests, if anyone suspects people in the public sector of using it.

Using that kind of personal data to determine whether service users/constituents are worthy of being served/represented is very sinister indeed, not to mention illegal.

lol @ cursed E suddenly realizing that making lists of goodies and baddies to control people might backfire spectacularly. They really have big brains over there in totalitarian gender land.

'EFN is concerned that the app is a threat to people’s safety by putting a mark against their name. It could be used to identify targets for online harassment, cyberstalking and physical attacks.'
