A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I don't quite understand how they're gonna "ban" you if you're not logged in. Which you can accomplish with an incognito tab. What are they gonna do, block the IP?

This is exactly what they will do, yes.

Can't wait until they find out about dynamic IPs

Never understood IP bans. 2 minutes to restart my router and I'm there again!

It's why they're not really done for users any more. Still very useful for blocking malicious servers or networks though.
