OpenSUSE Tumbleweed with Plasma, but once I get a new-iah PC I’ll probably get back to my beloved Gentoo. :-)

I would say it’s rather a flaw in law, not federating. You should only be liable for stuff you do, not what your software does. The only ones to blame in this case are those who produce and those who actively share that content - otherwise we could fine the ISPs and backbone network owners solely for the fact the materials travel through their network.

That’s not that bad… Way worse is that Google will push your site to the 10th-or-so page abyss for minor problems yet they keep on showing more and more spammy sites (the ones which contain random sentences with your search term mysteriously embedded in the middle of them, without any kind of relevance, and with painfully obviously randomly generated domains… I still don’t understand how do they manage to put the term you’re searching right now into the search results.)
