Blocklists

I've just found out I've been blocked by a couple of people, including LM. As I've never knowingly interacted with either it looks as if I'm on a block list. I'm struggling to find which one/s though. Not entirely sure why I care either!

It seems a good idea to make a list of femanist/TERF block lists and I was hoping you could help me by posting here.

Thanks.

Blocked where?

I’d love to know if these fall foul of GDPR when it comes in. I know our company training included a section on no longer being able to prejudice by algorithm.

Anyone with a better grasp of the tech and legal issues than me who could say?

Sorry - Twitter. I know I'm not on terfblocker but there are sure to be more.

I cant understand how so many of these 'activist' types, who identify as anarchists and such, all very "You arent the boss of me!", choose to allow these blocklists to decide who they won't get to see on Twitter. They're very trusting of whoever runs the lists.

There is also one that goes t'other way snd blocks the TQackivists but tiresome as they are, I'd still rather make my own decisions.

[But then, I'm not in some kind of online identity cult..]
