Dissenter is NOT an Issue

After looking at how the extension works, I realize it doesn't actually use any site accounts to make comments to any site pages. It merely has the capability to start a thread at its own site for any web page a user would like. Interesting and definitely not malicious, so definitely don't worry about it.

Anyone who cared to take an actual look into it with a bare minimum of intellectual honesty would have told you that much... which is why it's so terminally unsurprising that the Ministry of Truth mainstream media is hell-bent on painting it as a cesspool of ultra-extremist far-right turbo-nazis.

If there's one thing they can't stand is the thought of the unwashed hoi polloi being able to talk back at their betters.

I'm a little concerned paranoid about the plugin doing datamining, so I'm keeping it disabled now. I can just copy/paste links into the dissenter website.

What made you suspect that? Anything in particular?

Just the fact it's a free service. If you're not paying cash for it, you're giving up something else. It's just the rule of software on the internet. Gab has left me with little reason to not trust them as an entity, but I'm not going to fool myself into thinking they started up a Twitter alternative pro bono.

What if I told you you're not actually giving anything up when using Sanctuary?

:rolleyes:

I think you know what I mean. Also, thank you for paying with your own hard earned money to bring us a site to use, since this is a good time to say I appreciate it.
