RE: I have an announcement.

If this is true that it is hosted in the UK, then you are absolutely correct that hosting needs to be moved to another country pronto! The UK's laws on what is and isn't illegal are far to vague and broad, and would endanger the platform. The service needs to be moved to a country like Norway, Switzerland, or the US, in order to avoid government mandated censorship of legitimate topics.

Nothing for 3Speak is hosted on servers in the UK.

Excellent! Good to know!

How does UK law compel you? Are you HQ'd there? If you think hosting content outside of the UK absolves you of UK law, why have that in your FAQ?

Thank you for your comment. Actually we have to update our FAQ to reflect the actual situation. Be assured that the content is not hosted directly in the United Kingdom but in several other locations close to the UK.

Edit: The FAQ page is now updated: https://3speak.online/intl/faq

Thanks for clarifying. Good to know. That was very alarming to read considering the UK is almost Orwellian in it's attempts to curb free speech. I've been following many related stories. Best of luck and looking forward to seeing where this goes!
