When did he say this? Is this real?

edit: Damn you’re quick, 26 minutes ago

Donald Trump says he has pushed back on requests from Vladimir Putin to hold potential peace talks in Moscow.

“One of the things that I talked to [Putin] about was, where would you want to meet? And he said, ideally in Moscow,” Trump said, adding that he rejected the idea as it “just doesn’t work”.

“But he’ll meet and Zelenskyy is going to meet and something’s going to happen,” says Trump. “It’s going to be positive.”

The US president adds that he hopes a meeting with the two sides will happen “soon”.

He then turns to Zelenskyy and asks: “Would you go to Moscow?”

“It’s difficult, there’s a lot of Ukrainian drones there,” Zelenskyy jokes, to laughter from those in the room.

and my axe

Love a good Covert Cabal video

This is what I see?

I think it looks pretty :)

Then what is the point of what the OP is saying? How is Mastodon any different? If anything it looks like it’s worse because ICE just have a basic link to their website and it’s done.

What’s stopping ICE from verifying on Mastodon?

Does Mastodon even have the verification feature?

Removed by mod

there’s no banning or blocking of social media sites

This is what the so-called “kill zone” near Pokrovsk looks like from the enemy’s perspective (source). The anti-tank ditch is packed with the bodies of Russian stormtroopers.

Neither Solyovyov nor Skabeeva would ever show this—their narrative is all about “surgical advances across the entire frontline with minimal sanitary losses.”

A real mass grave.

Worth noting: the corpses haven’t been cleared, enemy vehicles don’t drive there, and another assault group marches in under fog when Ukrainian drones can’t monitor.

^ translation of the description of the video

I’m not going to link directly to the video as I don’t want to get banned but there’s been a few videos now of what Russians are seeing in Pokrovsk and it ain’t pretty that’s for sure, this is the channel but it’s mainly ukrainian news so you’ll have to scroll up a bit:

No, it’s account based, in a lot of cases changing your DNS won’t change the server you end up with at Youtubes or whoever

Age-restricted platforms are expected to take reasonable steps to:

• find existing accounts held by under-16s, and deactivate or remove those accounts

• prevent under-16s from opening new accounts

• prevent workarounds that may allow under-16s to bypass the restrictions

• have processes to correct errors if someone is mistakenly missed by or included in the restrictions, so no one’s account is removed unfairly.

Does every Australian now have to prove their age to use social media?

For example, if someone has had an account since Facebook started in Australia in 2006, Meta could reasonably assume they are older than 16 so no further check is needed.

Platforms then use a variety of signal’s to detect if someone is under 16:

DNS has nothing to do with it

How are they going to enforce any of that on a company with no office in Australia? Answer: They can’t.

Then how am I still able to access youtube, facebook and all the others without needing to give them my ID?

You think youtube and facebook don’t have offices in Australia?

That’s a lot of text just to say “I’m an idiot who loves bending over for the government”.

I’m simply telling you what the government is telling social media companies that allow Australian users to create accounts on their websites

You can change your DNS all you want mate, I’m just saying it won’t make a difference

Then how am I still able to access youtube, facebook and all the others without needing to give them my ID?

DNS translates domains like youtube.com into IP’s like 1.1.1.1, this has no bearing when you make a social media account in Australia:

It’s not a ban, it’s a delay to having accounts.

This means there will be no penalties for under-16s who access an age-restricted social media platform, or for their parents or carers. However, age-restricted social media platforms may face penalties if they don’t take reasonable steps to prevent under-16s from having accounts.

As of 10 December 2025, Facebook, Instagram, Kick, Reddit, Snapchat, Threads, TikTok, Twitch, X and YouTube are required to take reasonable steps to prevent Australians under 16 from having accounts on their platforms.

If you have an australian account registered with those websites and they suspect you are under 16 you will have to verify your id

As explained here the platforms will need to check:

How can under-16s be stopped from finding a way around the age restrictions?

Platforms may assess age-related signals which can help work out if someone is under 16. These signals can include:

how long an account has been active

whether the account holder interacts with content targeted at children under 16

analysis of the language level and style used by the account holder and the people they interact with

visual checks, such as facial age analysis of the account holder’s photos and videos

audio analysis, such as age estimation of the voice of the account holder

activity patterns consistent with school schedules

connections with other users who appear to be under 16

membership in youth-focused groups, forums or communities.

Platforms may also use location-based signals which can help work out if an account holder usually lives in Australia and could be using a VPN to pretend they don’t. These signals can include:

IP address(es)

GPS or other location services

device language and time settings

a device identifier

an Australian phone number

app store or operating system or account settings

photos, tags, connections, engagement or activity.

Evidence of these age and location signals is expected to trigger the age assurance process, or review of an account if it has already been checked.

https://www.esafety.gov.au/about-us/industry-regulation/social-media-age-restrictions/faqs

On top of this there are plenty of services that block VPN’s, most famously Netflix.

So yeah, changing one aspect of your account while leaving all the others won’t get around the ban

Edit: Nice alt accounts, loser.

This is my primary account and always has been? What’s with the loser? Why so cranky?

that is not how the social media ban works…

Legends 💪

simply that these platforms usually get boosted by Reddit doing a scandal

Then the question is, why is it when users come from reddit they don’t hang around? they don’t tell their friends, hey this is a place that’s awesome!

Every bit of decentralised user friction is friction that centralised platforms don’t have

I’m very happy piefed is tackling some of these bits of friction but more is needed.
