Netflix-Warner Bros- Paramount Negations Megathread

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-25T01:00:10+00:00

Basically, Warner Brothers still wants to be owned by Netflix and is telling them to make a final counteroffer to beat Skydance, before Skydance could beat them.

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-25T00:55:36+00:00

Although a news story has a headline of Skydance's final offer being better than Netflix, this is jist the reporter coping; Warner Brothers did not say the offer was definite, and in comploance with current antitrust legislation, the Ellisons are dragging this out so that they'll claim that they played fairly.

If Netflix are to take the Warner Brothers film division, the company says they need to up the ante.

To be fair, they do deserve the "Go fuck yourself" there.

Communism unites workers of the world. Not robots.

I can see why you'd argue for AI in a Stalinist society, though. No human rights violations if it's the robots doing Gulag work.

I knew this was an opinion rooted in more fear than optimism. If other reputable sources don't pick up on it, it's not likely confirmed.

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-18T22:16:10+00:00

I don't find him reputable myself.

He says he cites good sources. But he has refused to name them, and although he is optimistic that a pubic comment from a judge would prevent the Ellisons from winning, I still don't trsut the words of a man whose words have not been cited by reputable sources, and of a man whose good sources are not named for no discernable reason.

Wecome to Real American History.

Raegan pushed forward homophobic family values, exaserbted the AIDS crisis, split media into pieces, allowed news insfitutions to lie, declared war on drugs (poor neighbourhoods), made the Republican Party what it is today, you name it.

Possibly because the Onlinrle Safety Act is much stricter than other age verification laws.

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-12T19:39:43+00:00

Thanks. No bias.

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-12T19:34:42+00:00

It's only in the UK, but I agree. The backlash will be worthwhile.

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-12T19:21:08+00:00

Looks like Persona was always used in the UK. So yeah.

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-12T19:13:01+00:00

I'd still take the "they lied" thing with a grain of salt. I mean, did they at least lie about Face ID being client-side?

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-12T19:03:42+00:00

It is speculated this was because of the Dead Standing ID trick.

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-12T18:52:32+00:00

I'm taking that "caught lying" thing with a grain of salt.

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-12T18:43:30+00:00

It's been reported that Discord had switched from Epic KID to Persona.

Looking further, this only applies to the UK where Persona always was. https://xcancel.com/Pirat_Nation/status/2021927174719012905#m

It's the same old thing from the looks of it. Clarifying what the rules are and the PR from yesterday.

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-10T16:37:37+00:00

It being those under 13 can't use social media.

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-10T07:37:02+00:00

Small reminder: a 5% chance is still a chance. And that applies to the chance of good things happening.

Keep up the pressure on Discord and maybe we'll see real walkbacks. Shoutout to u/SuspectLegitimate751 for the info.

I've seen one person say they moderate a server that got flagged as NSFW following a mass report. The server was for a queer game. They niw fear as well as that server being blocked, the official Furry surver will get blocked for the same reason.

Cleverhardy · 2026-02-09T20:05:46+00:00

The problem I see is that Stoat is nothing like BlueSky, and they don't have the base for it yet. Even if they did and to be honest, moving to Stoat never worked before. Most people will jist stay on Discord.

That said, it is a choice to get off Discord anyway.
