This just like the fucked up changes on YouTube/Google are all part of the battle between big corporations vs big brother. Both sides want global control which is why Edwards Snowden took a big risk to revel information about the NSA spying and how facebook/Google/Microsoft.etc all have back door deals to send user information without you’re consent.
Fanfiction.net is likely being harassed by the NSA to give in to *The System* or being taken over by communist agents as all these rules are very communist not at all reflecting the will of the people.
It seems harmless now doing a few things here and a few things there but down the road it can and will be used to blackmail you even though “I’ve got nothing to hide” which is the popular excuse to give up privacy. We’ll see how well that turns out.
I hope more people like him speak out. I HATE globalism. with a capital H. I bet this post will be deleted because I am too close to the truth..

If you ignore the part about communists, it isn't much of conspiracy. Corporations gather a lot of private information whenever they can. It was shown especially in Google or Facebook.
tracking cookies and trade of information are nothing new. most of the big companies in the technology or communication sectors has agreements with the government. privacy is much harder to achieve.
However, the corporations use the information for profit, not a plot to rule the world. there also the fact that the size of data resources is so vast, that even with clever algorithms they can't analyze everything.
I think healthy concern may be justified, but the big brother panic is overreaching.
I HATE globalism. with a capital H.
It appears you hate it with capital A, T, and E as well.
"I HATE globalism. with a capital H. "
If it wasn't a capital h I would have thought that this is just a minor inconvenience for you, but with it being a capital letter I'm going to take you much more seriously.
...taken over by communist agents as all these rules are very communist..."
In the opening of the Communist Manifesto , Marx points out that people use the scare tactic of calling whatever opponent they have "communists".
Can we move on to something a little fresher than the 1840s, please?
"Real American patriots don't hide in Russia. Snowden is a pussy."
Calling him a pussy because he is unwilling to be thrown into solitary for a couple of years before the trial even begins, face torture ( sorry enhanced interrogation ) and then a closed door secret trial followed by life without parole in a supermax prison is a cheap insult.
He has already been publicly declared guilty by a number of US lawmakers, including the president. His chances of a fair trial are ZERO.
Apparently REAL AMERICAN PATRIOTS follow orders blindly and never ask questions.
@dietcokewithlemon
A fair trial would not go well for him. He broke the law and revealed classified information. He signed a nondisclosure agreement, and then disclosed information. There's not really any debate over his guilt.
Whether it was wrong is a different question, but the legal system doesn't deal with that.
Fanfiction.net?
I don't even.
If you actually vote, and work to preserve the vote for everyone, big brother can become big 'we the people.'
@Peter Fitz - Snowden didn't intend to get stuck in Russia. " Snowden got stuck in the transit zone of a Moscow airport because Havana said it would not let him fly from Russia to Cuba." He may have intended to go on to Venezuela or some other South American nation from Cuba.
@ Peter Fitzinya: Whatever you think a real American Patriot is, I'm glad we have one fewer - we could do well with fewer patriots.
As we all see, one of the tenets in Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto is "And regulate the shit out of fanfiction.net, when the internet is invented, to make lots of rules on it. Which is Communist. Somehow."
^ Houston we have a problem - she has been confirmed to have had numerous mental problems. Least of which is this delusion that there is an omnipotent group of puppeteers who have been gone since the 1500s, and who were, in historical retrospect, decent individuals who opposed a fanatical church.
And yes, how very fiendish that an Egyptian device of such a nature be found AT A FUNERAL OF A DISTURBED INDIVIDUAL. Obviously, the Illuminati put it there to...to...(?) And therein lies the problem with your belief in the Illuminati - there is utterly no rhyme nor reason. Is it cold? Illuminati Weather Machine. Is it hot? Obviously an Illuminati plan. Is it raining. Illuminati Plan. Did you stub your toe? ILLUMINATI!
They're never going to come forward and confirm or deny any report of action attributed to them, because they don't exist in the form you're familiar with. So you can unendingly attribute asinine plans to a defunct organization survived today only by small pockets who organize themselves...on the internet.
Seriously. I joined "the Illuminati" last week. Man we had all kinds of fun at our last get together.
And you're going to need to cite something more reliable than a baked conspiracy theory website to be believed.
Go eat your tinfoil hat.
"I bet this post will be deleted because I am too close to the truth.."
And then it wasn't, and you ended up looking like a tool.
I'm sure this has nothing to do with the fact FFN is a business who was threatened with legal action for things like real person fics. Not to mention the fact that parents were complaining about their precious snowflake reading/writing smut. It made sense business wise to have rules that made them appear family friendly, while letting smut remain as long as it wasn't reported.
Eh, but what do I know? I've only been using the site since 2000.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
