Samples

gollark: I don't think it actually *could* work, given the low latency and high bandwidth necessary for *gaming*.
gollark: Orders of Magnitude does more of the "mystery" stuff, but is also very weird.

gollark: Which doesn't explicitly forbid E2E, but of course if you can't *see* what people are sending it might be EVIL CONTENT!!!!
gollark: The general idea, assuming it's the "EARN IT" (these terrible acronym names need to be stopped) thing, appears to be to only provide some "section 230" immunity-to-liability-from-most-user-content thing to companies which either "comply with “recommended” “best practices” for the prevention of online child exploitation conduct" (yes, as usual children are the excuse) or implementing "reasonable measures" for that.
