@wtfismyip Turns out it was a DNS problem. I'm not sure if you'd made it onto an Adblock block list at some point, but I restarted adblock on my router and wtfismyip.com is resolving once more. Prior to this it was refusing to resolve.
Thanks for your amazingly quick response!
David Graeber Institute"Hopelessness isn’t natural. It needs to be produced.
If we really want to understand this situation, we have to begin by understanding that for decades we have seen the construction of a vast bureaucratic apparatus for the creation and maintenance of hopelessness, a kind of giant machine that is designed, first and foremost, to destroy any sense of possible alternative futures."

We must say #NotoDigitalID.

The UK government wants to strip back jury trials to reduce the court backlog.
But 'efficiency' without accuracy and accountability is simply injustice delivered faster and at scale.
They should focus on expanding legal aid, banning “crime-predicting” tech that funnel people into the legal system and investing in community services, housing, youth clubs and mental health services. These are more successful in reducing crime and reoffending.
