Ah, sort of a “yes, and” attitude. For something so important, I can’t blame them. Texts, calls, emails, social, push alerts - do it all.

Yep. Everyone in the thread asking this question seems clueless to me. Macros are already a threat. I can’t imagine what a shitshow full on python would be.

Can you expand on how you got blocked? First time I’ve heard of this.

Those people need to pull their head out.

It should be on the government to post this information on a public government website. It should be on the people to go read it.

I do believe governments should be looking at alternative alerting options though. They should take the recent API rate hikes by Twitter as a bright red warning that they should never have relied on private companies like this for important alerts.

No, that can’t be right.

Meta started blocking news on its Facebook and Instagram platforms for all users in Canada this month in response to a new law requiring internet giants to pay for news articles.

Look, I hate Facebook as much as the next guy but you have to admit, Canada doesn’t have much to bitch about. They did this to themselves.

Facebook doesn’t want to pay for news articles so they decided not to have news at all. ¯\(ツ)
