Everything here was supposed to disappear. Banned subreddits, deleted communities, cancelled blogs — much of what is archived here survives nowhere else.

It stays free — no paywall, no account — for the next man who comes looking, the way it was free for you.

I pay for the servers, the storage and the bandwidth myself. If you want this record still standing in ten years, become one of the people who keeps it online.

This seems to confuse the idea consent even further. Individuals like the top demand that they be pursued even after blocking or attempting to cut off contact, because it shows "loyalty", and yet, doesn't this scenario by its very nature suggest that "No doesn't always mean No"?

If someone blocks you, that would seem to imply that they don't want further contact from you. And yet, it's clear that this woman wants contact from the person they blocked, which is dishonest. When larger number of these interactions are dishonest in this fashion, there's no one to actually tell consent.

Imagine if someone dated this woman, she blocked him, then was upset when he did not continue to pursue her. The two break up, and he eventually enters a new relationship. After some fighting, his girlfriend blocks him because she genuinely wants to cut off all contact. And yet, he has been instructed that he must continue to pursue her, in order to prove his 'loyalty.'

This original woman, in addition to being unhealthy and entitled, is actively damaging the rights of other women by misleading and misinforming people about the real rules of consent and respectful boundaries.
