National Vigilance Association

The National Vigilance Association was a British society established in August 1885 "for the enforcement and improvement of the laws for the repression of criminal vice and public immorality".[1]

The Association was established in response to articles exposing child prostitution published by W. T. Stead in the Pall Mall Gazette. Stead became a member of its council.[2]

gollark: ... hi?

gollark: Can you just write binaries onto it through the shell they give you? Small ones.

gollark: This is, well, homelab-*adjacent* at least, so I figure I might get some help here: how can I copy my ebooks from Amazon Kindle (the service, I lost my actual physical Kindle) to Calibre? I can access them in the "cloud reader" thing and the Android app (on a rooted device, and also one old enough that it seems okay with storing some app data on SD cards), but have no idea how to import the files stored on there.

gollark: The Gallery app often works okay?

gollark: Apparently Doge Linux exists: https://sourceforge.net/projects/doge-linux/
